Wonderful shelling experience! - All of our family truly enjoyed the shelling trip. From experiencing the dolphins playing over the waves. They were so close to us we even saw a mother and baby jumping together. When we went to the Island we were able to collect so many different shells and just soaking up the sun and beautiful view. Our captain Mike was a pleasure to talk to and gave us such a wonderful boat trip.

Great experience! Friendly guide! - Mike was a great guide. He had great communication leading up to the trip. Took the time to show us some dolphins playing in the water and let us decide if we wanted to switch spots or not. Would highly recommend booking a trip with Mike

Five stars! Sea shell tour with Mike. - We were with Mike. He checked in with us the day before and gave us a weather report. He said it looked good for our trip the following day. He was waiting for us when we arrived. Mike had waters iced up for us. He took us to two private beaches to search for shells. The kids had a blast and found great shells. We even saw some sea turtles. I would highly recommend Mike and this tour. If you want to go fishing, he also does fishing excursions. Five stars!!!!

Great way to see the coast line and find pretty shells! - Fun experience for all ages! Captain Mike was great. We went to two locations perfect for finding beautiful shells. Be sure to wear beach gear and footwear that can get wet and bring sunscreen, there isn’t much shade on the boat so you will be in direct sunlight for all of the tour. If you are looking for some time on the water and searching for pretty shells, I recommend this tour!

Amazing Shelling Tour - Mike made our shelling tour unforgettable! He took us to several beautiful beaches, helping my kids find stunning shells. His accommodating nature and expert knowledge were impressive. The highlight was when he followed a manatee because my girls were fascinated by it. This unexpected encounter added extra excitement to our trip. Mike was a fantastic guide, making the experience fun and memorable. Highly recommend this tour!

Dolphins, manatee, and shells - a beautiful outing - Mike was very cordial. I am so glad he accommodated us with about 12 hours notice.
The shelling was fun - it was high tide so I guess we didn't see any of the big shells.
What was amazing was the boat ride. Mike spotted dolphins, and then slowly approached them, and teased them into following in our wake for a few miles. We watched 5 dolphins jumping alongside the boat. That was wonderful! He also spotted a manatee, and quietly drew alongside it to watch it come up for air.
We made two beach stops on Old Hickory, I believe.
A very nice 2 hour outing.

Lovely afternoon on a boat - Captian Mike knew all the best shelling spots and gave us a great afternoon on his boat. He got a family of dolphins to give us a show next to the boat which the kids loved!

Great Experience for a Family - Captain Mike was a great tour guide filled with information as we sailed away. We enjoyed the show that he was able to attract for miles. It was beautiful, then we saw manatees . We stopped at a beach filled with so many shells, that was fun as we had way too many to choose from lol but we have a beautiful collection to take home. We did some snorkeling, that was ok because the water wasn’t clear enough to really see much. It’s not like Hawaii but again we enjoyed being able to do it. Thank you Captain Mike. My family and I really enjoyed it.
