Why Is Shell Island Called Shell Island


Shell Island is a barrier island that stretches 7 miles long and a beach that forms the southern portion of St. Andrews State Park. Visitors who are looking for a pristine beach experience can access the island via private boat, or by the Shell Island Cruise. The island is ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Walking inland on the island allows you to see rare Florida birds, plants, and wildlife in their natural state.


The catamaran was very relaxing. I enjoyed watching the dolphins as well as snorkeling and paddleboarding. The staff was wonderful! We saw lots of dolphins, stingrays, and other marine life. While snorkeling was not a popular activity, there were still plenty of fish to be seen.

Shell Island, an undeveloped barrier island off Florida’s Emerald Coast, is called "Seaside Island". It measures 7 miles east to west. It is composed of graceful sand dunes as well as pine hammocks and shrub forest. Shorebirds and deer can call this inland lake home. Shell Island is protected by the shore, which means that many species of coastal wildlife and endangered species have made their home there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Once you get there it is all worth it, as it is the most beautiful water I've ever seen. It is like you are swimming in a pool. It is so crystal clear. We didn't know what to expect so we went planning to spend a few hours on the island. Come expecting to spend all day!

There is no limit to the activities you can experience at or on Shell Island! You can swim, snorkel, paddleboard, go kayaking, sunbathe, hunt seashells, go hiking, have a picnic, and more!

Though the area boasts an average of 320 days of sunshine per year, late spring, summer and early fall offer some of the warmest air and water temperatures. Plus, by avoiding a visit in March or April, you'll dodge the deluge of college students who descend on the area's ivory sands every year for spring break.

This island is not as secluded as you see on the pictures and we couldn't find any of the cool shells either. (I understand that it's nature and can't be controlled).
