Kayaking Adventures to Shell Key in St. Petersburg with Grub at a Great Pub

Kayaking Adventures to Shell Key in St. Petersburg with Grub at a Great Pub

Shell Key Kayaking-Pen Pal Adventure Book

This day trip includes a kayak trip to a remote island with tons of shells and then great grub at a pub just around the corner!

Just before the entrance to Fort DeSoto in Tierra Verde, Florida is a pull off where you can park and drop your kayak in the water or reserve a tour in comfortable, easy to maneuver, sit-inside touring kayak from Island Kayak Tours.

It's a quick 30-minute paddle over to the beautiful Shell Key where you can relax, enjoy the sights, wander around the point to the Gulf of Mexico side and of course, add a broken shell to some driftwood as right-of-passage.

  • Go during high tide!
  • Bring water/sunscreen
  • Bring a baggie if you want to collect a few shells
  • Be careful if you're barefoot

After your kayak trip, head over to Jolly Roger's Grub and Pub for a meal and the game (if it's game time).  This sports pub has friendly staff and a great salad with pina colada dressing that was oddly satisfying!  It's right around the corner from the kayak launch.
