Please register as quickly as possible as space should fill ; registrations will not be confirmed until the $52.10 payable by check only to the Marco Island Shell Club is received. Because of the limited number of seats for this excursion we will not be using online registration. Registration will be available during the Friday workshops on January 19 through February 2 or by sending an email with you contact information to marcoislandshellclub34145@gmail.com. Your seat will not be confirmed until payment is made. You may bring or drop off your payment at Friday’s workshop.

Keewaydin Island is a fabulous shelling spot, and although low tide is at 6:15am, we should still have a great experience. Keep in mind that there are no restrooms on the island nor food and beverage services unless the food boats are there that day. You may bring a folding beach chair, cooler with food/beverages, beach towels, and a container for your wonderful finds.

The recommended arrival time is 7:15am as boarding is at 7:30am. Departure is 7:45am sharp and no refunds will be issued to anyone who is a late arrival and misses the shuttle.
