About
Hop aboard our USCG certified Vessel and join your captain to embark on a scenic ride to the Gulf of Mexico!! In addition to your master captain, you will be paired with an expert in-water guide who will be there to assist every step of the way, for NO ADDITIONAL COST. Upon arrival to the scallop grounds, your guide will ensure you know just what you are looking for and show you how to scoop your score! Once you are comfortable in the water, your guide will scallop along with you to contribute to your haul and help you get as close to limit as possible! At Explorida, we are dedicated to going above and beyond... so your captain and guide will even shuck your scallops for you!!!!
Recreational scallop limits are 2 gallons per person, no more than 10 gallons per boat. This yields about a pint of meat per person which is perfect for a delightful dinner! On your scallop charter, your captain and guide will share some of their favorite recipes or even direct you to some local restaurants that will cook your shucked scallops for you so you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy!!
With us, you are sure to enjoy this salty swim and an epic underwater treasure hunt!! The delectable bay scallop is truly a Florida treasure, so don't miss this chance to scoop your own and enjoy the freshest dinner money can buy! Book your tour now!!
