Marco Island is just a few miles south of Naples, Florida. Both Marco Island and Naples have some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. On our boat tours off the coast of Marco Island, we venture deep into the Ten Thousand Islands to hidden locations that have fascinating shells that lay untouched. The most valuable shell by most is the Junonia shell, which we have found more than any company in Southwest Florida. These islands have beaches that have the title of the Best Shelling Beaches in Southwest Florida because they are layered with very rare and prized shells.

Led by Captain Joey and his highly experienced boat tours, you’ll learn all about the local islands, local wildlife, and even some of the history behind it all. Kids and adults will love our Marco Island shelling tours because we keep you entertained with hilarious stories and engaging adventures that will make the day go by all too fast!

Part of the fun of our Marco Island boat tours is not just seeing the gorgeous, natural flora, pristine beach sands, and glistening ocean water, it’s all the extras that come with it! You’ll love watching the dolphins ride the waves, bursting high into the air just feet from the boat and finding rare Junonia shells on the best shelling tour around!

Want to catch some of the best fish in South Florida while on the island with your family? Many of our guests want to cast some lines while their partner, kids, or other group members take the professionally guided shelling excursion. We’ll bring the rods, bait, and everything we need to fish from shore. We’ll even give your party some fishing tips so everyone can become expert anglers!

If you want shells, I mean shells like nowhere else (including Sanibel, Lovers Key, and Captiva then you want to do this. Seriously. Capt. Joey is great and will take you to the shells. But that’s just the start. He’s a great guy ever and loves showing off Marco Island and it’s famous homes. And then there are the dolphins. One of the most memorable events of your entire vacation will be watching the dolphins “surf” right up to touching distance of the boat. I HIGHLY recommend Sand Dollar Shelling. VERY Highly!. -Kevin B.

Captain Joey was so awesome! I have a three year old and she completely loved it and so did my mom. Captain Joey completely made the trip, he was knowledgeable and so fun! He basically explained each shell on shell island to my three year old- the patience! He went above and beyond to make sure we had fun. We saw tons of dolphins and all three of our minds were blown. Highly recommend. -Liz from a Shelling Tour

My husband and I spent a very educational morning with Captian Joey. So much much information, a great view as well as fantastic shells. We really enjoyed our time looking for shells. I recommend this trip for anyone. I defiantly will be back when visiting the area. Thanks from the Ohio pilot & wife. -Terrie from a Shelling Tour

Amazing shelling trip, Joey was a superb captain willing to share his vast knowledge of the islands, local wildlife, and shells. The shelling was truly unbelievable with all of us finding a multitude of rare and hard to find shells on a beautiful island created with shells. We caught super videos of the dolphins within a few feet of the boat surfing on the wake, we’ll be using this wonderful captain from now on when visiting Florida. Joey, thank you so much for a wonderful day, we cannot wait for our next adventure with you.
