10 Discover the unspoiled beauty of Shell Island

This barrier island divides the Gulf of Mexico from St. Andrew Bay. Once occupied by First Nations peoples, today the island mainly houses a stunning range of wildlife. Take a trip and discover ghost crabs, deer, and a diverse collection of shoreline birds. Head out into the water and you may experience sea turtles and bottlenose dolphins. For a more exciting island trip, take your snorkel mask or book a kayak. Use the facilities before you head out as this island is preserved in its entirely natural state.
