Watch wild dolphins, explore shell-covered barrier islands, and collect souvenirs on a private 150-minute 10,000 Islands excursion.

About this tour

Set out across the beautiful waters of the 10,000 Islands on a private shelling and dolphin excursion, with room to enjoy the scenery away from the crowds. This 150-minute trip pairs wildlife watching with time to explore secluded barrier islands known for their seashells.

Keep an eye out for wild dolphins as you cruise, then step ashore to search for shells and fill the provided buckets and bags with your finds. Bottled water and a cooler filled with ice are on hand during the outing. The 2.5-hour duration makes this a family-friendly way to experience the islands, and the shells you collect can become a memorable souvenir.

Meet your captain by the picnic tables next to the blue and white marina building. Bring snacks and towels if you need them, and note that parking costs $10. Book this private 10,000 Islands shelling and dolphin excursion for a relaxed day on the water.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.99 from 383 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Naples
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 9.6. Top 1% in Naples means it ranks in the top 1% of tours in Naples by this score.
