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.

The Driver of the boat was very informative and allowed us to view the dolphins swimming around us. The shell key was perfect place to hang out for an hour in the water and got lots of shells too

Fun, friendly, knowledgeable crew. We had a great time. Don’t expect a secluded island. Beautiful shells collected for another amazing beach trip.

Very nice area that we shell at. Found a lot of nice shells. Captains were very friendly, knowledgeable and funny. Beware that if you are at the front of the boat on a windy day you will get kissed by some salt water. Overall had a great experience. Would try again!

The boat cruise was so much fun! We had to travel through the inter coastal waters because the ocean was very choppy. It was about an hour to get to shell key and on the way we learned all about the houses, saw dolphins and other wildlife. We spent an hour at shell key, which was calm waters with plenty of neat shells and wildlife. Back on the boat, the crew made necklaces out of our favorite shell! The company has many other cruises too, we will book again! Also, you can book directly through their website too.

Hubbard Marina was awesome! They were friendly, helpful, etc! Shelling was good but did find a lot of the same or better shells on the beach I was at. However, they mentioned they do a shark tooth tour - so I may try that next!

The trip too short for the money we paid . 2 hours in the island will be much better . One hour not enough to see everything and have a little fun .
