Tampa Bay Ferry
Tampa Bay Ferry is family owned and operated since 1928. We are the only official ferry service to and from Egmont Key and Shell Key.
Begin and end your adventure at historic Fort De Soto, a military outpost constructed during the Spanish American War, listed in the “National Register of Historic Places”. Explore the fort that is still equipped with 12-inch rifled mortars and two British breech-loading 6-inch Armstrong rapid-fire guns. Fort De Soto has been rated the number one beach in the entire United States.
Here you can view all the Island Trips we offer! Go sight seeing on Egmont Key and visit historic Fort Dade, or a lighthouse built in the 1800’s. Go Snorkeling and experience the what the bay holds beneath the surface. Explore the beautiful pristine barrier island Shell Key only accessible by boat. Want to stay longer? Go camping and have an epic night under the stars!
