Shell Key & Egmont Key are 2 of the few remaining undeveloped barrier islands remaining in the Gulf of Mexico. The only way to these unspoiled Florida tropical islands is by boat. Dolphin Landings offers public and private trips to both. Shaped by the hurricanes, waves and ever changing tides, Shell Key offers guests one of the finest locations for exotic tropical shelling found anywhere in western Florida. Shell Key is also a shorebird sanctuary, home to one of the densest shorebird nesting populations remaining in America. Visit Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary for more. Arguably the most beautiful waters in Tampa Bay can be found at Egmont
Key. Declared a National
Wildlife Refuge in 1974, Egmont Key offers a critical nesting area
to
Loggerhead Sea
Turtles, Gopher
Tortoises, and Box
Turtles along with dozens of tropical migratory shorebirds. Dolphin
Landings’ guests love snorkeling in Egmont’s turquoise
blue waters, or strolling through Fort Dade’s ruins and 100 year
old brick roads built during the Spanish American War. The island also
boasts a 150
year old working lighthouse! It's no wonder why our island excursions
have become so popular! |
