About this experience
Join us for our 4-Hour Kice Island Shelling Trip, departing from the Goodland Boat Park. Located at the northern tip of the Ten Thousand Islands, Marco Island is surrounded by remote beaches accessible only by boat—perfect for discovering an incredible variety of shells.
Our experienced captains and guides will lead you to the best shelling spots and share their extensive knowledge of each shell you find. You'll learn about the creatures that once inhabited them—their behaviors, diets, and how they adapt to life between the tides.
This tour is dedicated exclusively to shelling. In addition to collecting unique shells, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the local ecosystem and the vital role these marine animals play. Whether you're a first-time beachcomber or a seasoned collector, this experience offers both education and adventure in a one-of-a-kind setting.
