Spring break family fun ☀️🏝️💕 - We had a wonderful experience! Great atmosphere and staff. Enjoyed hanging out before our trip, playing teather ball. Enjoyed Shell Island—the ride over, a family of dolphins, paddle boats, and the beauty overall.

Great time for any group! - This was a super fun experience!! We were with Captain Chase, Christie and Sarah. Crew was very professional and fun. They were super kind and went out of their way to make sure everyone was served on the boat. The dolphin weren’t hard to find or see. Lots of them out there. The three of them were super knowledgeable about the area and the waters. If you’re not from the area this is an absolute must do. I have past snorkeling and sailing experience and this was still a super fun time.

Wonderful!! - The whole experience from beginning to end was easy and fun! I love the way that the crew was so interested in entertaining and caring for the crowd, from the oldest to the youngest. The drinks were wonderful, and price was very reasonable. We did see quite a few dolphins on the trip, and the snorkeling area water was clear. Many fish could be seen, as well as some turtles. I would definitely recommend this company and this particular activity. It was worth it!

Met for some but not everyone - The boat was nice, the crew was good, we saw a couple dolphins, loved the music, but I do have a couple complaints. 1.) shell island should not be called shell island. I know that’s not their fault, but seriously. Whoever names islands should reconsider its name. Super misleading. The pathway leading to the dock had the most shells you’ll see your entire trip. We left with zero shells. Besides the 2 my son picked up on the walk back to the car from their pathway. The water was beautiful there with a small selection of sea life, but plenty of fish. Pretty clear and very minimum waves. 2.) Also we booked a trip from 10am to 1pm, we were pretty shocked to finally get to the island for the captain to tell us to be back on the boat by noon and we checked our time and it was already 11:15. That was pretty disappointing. Honestly it just didn’t meet our expectations but I can see how it can meet so many others. Everyone else looked to be happy and had a good time. It was alright for us. We’ve done many shelling and dolphin trips across Florida during our many vacations and this one just wasn’t it for us.
