Marco Island, FL. (July 14, 2005)
- Looking for something different this summer?
Enjoy shelling and sunset cruises aboard our new 45 foot, 49 passenger Corinthian Catamaran, the Calusa Spirit. This smooth running vessel, complete with onboard facilities and plenty of shade,
takes guests away from the heat and traffic and into the tranquil waters of the Gulf for complete relaxation and exciting
eco-adventures.
From now until November 1st, when you purchase one adult ticket ($49.00, plus Florida State sales tax), receive the second half off. Children 12 and under are $39.00. Simply
let our Beach Hut Staff know how you heard about our summer discount or bring them our coupon, which is featured in the new
summer addition of The Marco Review (www.marcoreview.com).
Our 2 ½ hour shelling cruise transports guests directly from the shores of Marco Island to the private
and serene beaches of Cape Romano. Scenic stops within the 10,000 Islands reveal close encounters with dolphin, manatee,
and tropical birds. Once you arrive at Cape Romano, and our friendly captains provide you with
shelling bags, you are quickly on your way to exploring the treasure filled beaches.
Complimentary water and soda is provided, but we also suggest bringing a cooler or picnic lunch.
Our
sunset cruise offers panoramic views aboard the Calusa spirit which provide you with the best vantage points for summer sunsets. Enjoy complimentary ice cold beer, wine, or champagne as you relax with your companion
and enjoy nature’s finest artwork as it descends into the Gulf waters. Don’t
forget to make your paradise getaway memorable- bring a waterproof disposable camera to capture the special moments on your
excursion.
Shelling tours depart at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. every day except Monday. Please ask our Beach Hut Staff
