Where do we fly in and Where can we stay?

Where can I fly into for the tours?

If you're new to Southwest Florida, the nearest regional airport is Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) located in Fort Myers, Florida.

Where do the tours launch from?

• All 10k Islands Shelling Tours launch from the Goodland Boat Park - 750 Palm Point Drive, Goodland, FL 34140.

• Keewaydin Tours may launch from Goodland, but more often than not, they launch from Bayview Park - 1575 Danford Street, Naples, FL 34112.

Where can I stay near the launch sites?

If you wish to stay near the tour launch sites, consider accommodations in the Naples or Marco Island area. Both locations are home to some world-class beach resorts, including:

- JW Marriott

- Hilton

- Marco Beach Ocean Resort

If luxury resorts aren't your style or are outside your budget, here are a few other options within a drivable distance:

- Affordable hotels and motels in the Naples/Marco Island area

- Vacation rentals offering a more personalized stay

- Bed and breakfasts for a cozy, home-like experience

These options provide a range of accommodations to suit different preferences and budgets, ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay while you enjoy the beauty of Southwest Florida.
