About this activity
Searching for scallops is so much fun it has made Citrus County a world famous destination for this unique and satisfying activity. Our Master Captain will lead your group to the Gulf of Mexico for 4.5 hours of salt water delight! Take a leisurely day out of your hectic vacation and relax with confidence on our comfortable boats. Feel the wind in your hair, smell the salt in the air and bask in the sunshine while we take care of the details!

Nestled in the shallow grass beds off the Homosassa River, scallops spawn in summer and then reach the end of their life cycle. These delicious morsels are just waiting to be someone's dinner! Like an Easter Egg hunt under water, you never know what wildlife you may see out there... dolphins, sea turtles, starfish and seahorses. Corals, remora, pufferfish and conch... what will you discover on this adventure? Our Captains and guides are highly qualified and experienced; you are in good hands and will have a phenomenal time! From our waterfront location in Homosassa we are closer to the scallop grounds then in years past and this maximizes your time in the water. This year our Captains legally may not leave their boat unattended, so an in-water guide IS NOT included in this price. 
• Semi-private boat accommodates up to 6 people
• Everything needed is included. License, mask & snorkel, fins and scallop bag all provided!
• Maximum harvest of 10 gallons per vessel or 2 gallons per person.
• This group size is perfect for beginners who need personal attention, or experienced scallopers who wish to maximize their harvest.

ATTENTION: This Gulf adventure is recommended for STRONG SWIMMERS, the condition in the ocean can vary greatly and change quickly. The Gulf can get choppy and you may be scalloping in water anywhere from 4 feet to 10 feet in depth. Bring small children at your own risk. Small children can be accommodated, but you are ultimately responsible for your child while out scalloping. Infants (under the age of 3) will not be allowed on a group or semi-private tour. To bring a baby, one must upgrade to a private scallop adventure. 

Scallop tours are done in the Gulf of Mexico where conditions are variable. The best scalloping conditions are on sunny days at low tides. The best chances at avoiding afternoon storms will be on the early morning departures. Rainfall, winds, tides, moon cycles and sunlight all have significant effects on visibility and rough waters can be very difficult for some to endure. Keep in mind while booking your scallop tour that we can not control mother nature. Please plan accordingly.
