Had a fantastic ride to and from Keewaydin Island on the Hemingway Water Shuttle! We were able to see a lot of dolphins along the way and had great conversation with the couple that owns and operates the shuttle. Highly recommend! The day on the island was amazing but the ride to and from made the day become 110%!…

Val and Steve are great! Very knowledgeable about the area and real estate. They make time to stop and see the wild life and are very accommodating! This will be an adventure every time we get to the area! Thank you Hemingway Water Shuttle for another great trip to Keewaydin!…

We booked a private (5 of us) sunset cruise on a weeknight. Hemingway was recommended to us by another charter company that didn’t have a private booking available. The entire experience, from booking, to getting to the boat dock, to the boat trip itself was fantastic. The owners were friendly and knowledgeable. The boat was very clean. Because of the weather we ended up not having any sunset to watch but even with the cloudy skies, we had a great time looking at the shorelines, learning about some of the local history, finding wildlife and exploring a small island (we were the only ones there!). Highly recommend giving Hemingway Water Shuttle your business. We will definitely book with them again on future trips!…

Great experience from the moment we stepped on board the pontoon boat. The captain and Val are a delight to converse with an extremely knowledgeable about the area pointing out lots of interesting things and telling us lots of interesting stories. They keep a lookout for dolphins and stopped a number of times so that we could take pictures. It was a delightful day all around. Would highly recommend everybody booking this trip.…

We love Hemingways Water Shuttle! What a great opportunity for the average vacationer to experience the gulf coast beauty in a unique way. This is our second time riding along with Steve an Val and their dog Jack (who loves watching for dolphins ) to Keewaydin, the pristine island in the Gulf of Mexico off Marco Island Fl, for shelling or simply relaxing the day away. There are several drop off and pick up times to match every desire. We love the easy on and off with the metal ramp going right to the sand. Bring chairs, picnic, whatever you want to enjoy your time. Or sit on the sand and eat off the food boats parked on the river side. Either way your day will be perfect!…
