GUIDED JET SKI

SHELLING TOUR

KEEWAYDIN ISLAND

5HR shared  

​

Join us for an exhilarating guided jet ski adventure to the picturesque Keewaydin Island, led by our experienced guides, Cam of BluWater Rentals and Ali of SWFL Shell Guide! This thrilling excursion is all about shelling and kicks off with the launch of our jet skis from Goodland Boat  Park. Get ready for a shelltastic journey through the backwaters culminating at the southern tip of Keewaydin!

​

As we navigate these scenic waters, you might be lucky enough to encounter playful dolphins, graceful manatees, majestic eagles, and soaring osprey. The jet ski ride to our destination takes approximately 45 minutes each way, providing us with ample time to enjoy over 3.5 hours of shelling.

​

Upon arrival at Keewaydin Island, we'll secure the jet skis and dive into the exciting task of collecting shells. Keewaydin Island boasts a rich diversity of plant and animal life, including the magnificent sea turtles. Depending on the season, you might even have the opportunity to witness sea turtle nests during our visit.

​

The entire experience typically lasts about five hours, with factors like wind conditions, currents, and the jet ski's pace (please note there are several idle speed zones on this route) influencing the duration.

​

This is a dedicated shelling tour with the added thrill of arriving by jet ski! Feel free to gather any empty shells you discover along the way. Please keep in mind that shell availability can vary greatly due to factors like weather, wind, tides, and other natural conditions. If conditions permit, we may even snorkel or swim for shells, although rest assured, we only offer this tour on select hand-picked dates where the tide is low enough to ensure a comfortable shelling experience for swimmers and non-swimmers alike. So, get ready for a shelltastic adventure you won't forget!
