Overview

Our best value tour. Imagine shelling on islands that are NOT picked over daily by 100's of people. With your naturalist guide, learn about individual shells. This is an excellent "hands-on" experience for the young and old alike.

This is not a typical preprogrammed tour. Every day and every tour can be different, so be sure to discuss with your guide the possibilities. This tour is approximately 3.5 hours in duration and departs twice daily at 8:30 and 1:30. Advanced reservations are required. Don't forget your cameras!

Note: June through October, we suggest the morning experiences due to the weather.

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on 10,000 Islands Excursion 3.5 hour Dolphin & Shelling Boat Tour?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
