Meet your captain and certified master naturalist guide in Goodland and search for rare and sought-after seashells like the prized Junonia. The boat departs our private docks before sunup to get on the beach before the other shelling companies.

Possible shelling locations:

Kice Island is considered the “sheller's island” and the best island in Florida for shelling. Located near Marco Island, you need a boat to get there! The barrier island has fantastic shells on the Gulf shore but is a notoriously difficult anchorage with a shallow mangrove shoreline, and is open to wind and waves. Our expert captains know where to go, and our certified Florida Master Naturalist guides know where to find the rarest and most exotic shells.
