Capt Lloyd is a boating and guide rock star! - We had the best day with Lloyd. He found us dolphins and knew the name of every shell we picked up. He was a terrific captain too. We laughed and joked all afternoon. A true host. Can’t wait to do this again! Funny thing was that I enjoyed the boating and warm water even more than the shelling! 15 out of 10 experience.

Best shelling tour ever - Went on a shelling tour with this company and captain Colleen was absolutely fantastic. The group was small, the company works the tours around the tides, etc. We went to non touristy islands that were full of some unique and definitely whole shells, and being from Florida myself, that in itself is quite rare. ( and sad to say, what we missed while combing for shells, captain Colleen found and shared). While getting from place to place on the pontoon boat, saw numerous birds, dolphins (who swam in the wake following us) and even a manatee. This is a definite must do tour

Go for it! - Great trip, I recommend it 100%! Our captain, Mark, was so knowledgeable and helpful. We found so many cool shells and Mark was able to tell us about them. And a couple of dolphins swam and played right by the boat!

Excellent tour! - Had a great day on our tour with Colleen. She was super-friendly and extremely knowledgeable about all things marine. She made sure she got us to an area for finding sand dollars early, and it paid off. The time flew by!
