Overview

- Do it all on this trip, look for shells, see dolphins, and spend time in nature. Led by certified naturalists or a biologist, each 3 hour excursion offers expert insight into the area's rich ecosystem.
- Journey out to an island to look for seashells, sunbathe, or get your feet wet. We spend around an hour at the island.
- Look for dolphins, manatees, and other wildlife the entire time. we know where they tend to hang out but wildlife is unpredictable so they may show up at any time during the tour.
- Our tour is also a bird-watcher’s paradise, with countless species gracing the skies and shores.

This scenic and insightful journey blends comfort, adventure, and the wonders of nature. Book your spot today and experience the magic of Estero Bay!

- Small Groups of 28 passengers max, our boat is just as spacious as other 40 passenger tour boats in the area but with better viewing opportunity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I get seasick on Dolphin and Shelling Cruise Tour at Fort Myers Beach?

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

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Naples over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
