"Sea Shelling on Untouched Beaches"

Leave the crowded beaches behind and step aboard for a private, unforgettable journey to Egmont Key—a pristine, secluded island accessible only by boat. We bypass the standard tourist traps to give you hands-on access to the island's rich history, vibrant wildlife, and untouched beaches.

Here is exactly what you will experience when we drop anchor:

• Wander the Historic Fort Dade Ruins: Step back in time to the Spanish-American War era as you explore the abandoned brick batteries and hidden trails of this historic military outpost.

• Spot Native Gopher Tortoises: As a protected national wildlife refuge, the island's natural landscape is teeming with life. Walk the sandy paths and keep your eyes peeled for the resident gopher tortoises that call this sanctuary home.

• Dive into Crystal-Clear Snorkeling Waters: Plunge into the vibrant Gulf waters right off the boat. The submerged ruins and pristine grass flats surrounding the island make this one of the most breathtaking underwater experiences on the coast.

• Hunt at the Best Shelling Spots Near Tampa Bay: Because Egmont Key is isolated from heavy foot traffic, its shores are a beachcomber's paradise. Stroll the waterline to discover intact conch shells, sand dollars, and unique treasures you simply won't find on the mainland.

• See the 1858 Lighthouse: Get a stunning view of the island's iconic lighthouse, a true testament to Florida's maritime history that is still actively maintained by the U.S. Coast Guard today.
