Our 3hr Shell Key Shelling Trip is offered from Hubbard’s Marina inside Johns Pass and offers around one hour on the island exploring and shelling with around an hour ride down the back protected bay waters on a relaxing, safe, and fun trip onboard the HUB Cat 49.

On the ride back to Johns Pass, we will cruise up our beautiful gulf beaches when weather allows, if it’s a little bumpy the ride back will also be in the back protected bay waters.

We will often spot dolphins, seabirds, manatees and other wildlife on the ride out and back!

Good trip. Important to know that half the trip is the boat trip to and from Shell Key, but that proved to be ample time for shelling. The boat trip was enjoyable and informative.
cold but fun

We had a great time on the shelling cruise with Captain Mike and Leah. We found so many amazing shells and had a long relaxing stroll along the beach. Captain Mike was informative and Leah made necklaces for our granddaughters out of a couple of the shells we found.
Great experience - highly recommend.

This was a great way to spend a morning in St Pete - this small-ish boat was a great way to explore the area. The captain found a lot of dolphins for us to see and allowed us to stay a while to watch them. Then a beautiful stop on shell key, where we found sand dollars and lots of treasures. Great experience- highly recommend.
Excellent shelling experience

I’m so glad I did this! Captain Robyn and First Mate Braelyn were fun, entertaining and informative. We were lucky enough to see dolphins swimming right by the boat multiple times! Shell Island is beautiful and relaxing. Grab a broken shell and hook it on a tree branch to make a wish. They also made a necklace from a shell I brought back. This is definitely worth the time and money. I recommend doing this!!
Great Tour

We just got back from an amazing 3-hour boat tour with Captain Mike and First Mate Leah, and it was absolute perfection! 🌊 They took us to the stunning Shell Island, where we had an incredible time collecting gorgeous shells (I'm still finding hidden treasures in my bag 😄). Captain Mike and Leah were top-notch - super knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone had an unforgettable experience. They made the trip feel so relaxed and fun. Can't recommend this tour enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great time, great crew.

Bring sunglasses, sunscreen and a towel or beach chair to sit on. Also a small cooler with a couple drinks and a snack is a good idea. Chips and peanuts and canned soda and water is for sale on boat if you forget. Bathing suit and mask and snorkle would have made it a greater experience. But was pretty great as it was just walking the beach we saw millions of shells to collect. 10 / 10 recommend.
