This experience was the standout moment of our trip. Captain Paul was incredibly friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable. He encouraged the dolphins to swim alongside the boat, pointed out baby birds, and guided us to the best places on the shore where we discovered a lot of great shells.
Megan proved to be a fantastic captain and tour guide. We discovered numerous beautiful shells and heard some entertaining Florida man stories along the way.
Paul S was an excellent tour guide. His knowledge of the area was impressive, and we discovered a great collection of beautiful shells.
My sister and I really enjoyed our three-hour tour and shelling experience with Captain Kerrick. We highly recommend it. The price was excellent, and it was just the two of us on the boat.
I had a fantastic excursion with Captain Paul and Veronica. We spotted dolphins immediately and then headed to an island to search for shells, finding plenty of them! I highly recommend this trip.
We had a lovely day on the water, and the shelling was great. Captain Joey was fantastic. It was more than just shelling; the tour included informative insights about the dolphins, stingrays, and the islands. Five million stars for Joey!
We had an incredible time. I can't recall our captain's name, but she was fantastic and provided a lot of valuable information.
Capt Paul S. was an outstanding guide, and we had an amazing trip. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the water and shelling on one of the islands near Marco Island. He was very knowledgeable and made sure my wife had a comfortable ride by letting her sit beside him in the captain's bench due to her previous back surgeries. We had a fantastic day and can't wait to return to Marco Island. We're also grateful for Capt Paul's 20 years of service as a Navy Veteran.
Opting for a small group tour was a fantastic decision. Paul S. served as an excellent guide and captain. We spotted dolphins both going out and returning. The shelling experience was plentiful and enjoyable, with Paul providing helpful identification assistance and plenty of useful tips.
Our experience with Sand Dollar Shelling was fantastic. We discovered countless stunning shells, and Captain Paul S truly enhanced the trip with his kindness, knowledge, and humor. His passion for his work is evident, and he ensures everyone enjoys themselves. I highly recommend this if you're seeking a fun and unforgettable shelling adventure.
