That depends on the length of your rental and the type of day you want to have. Shell Island is the primary destination for many boaters because of its clear water, sandy beaches, and opportunities for swimming and relaxing. A half-day rental is often best spent enjoying Shell Island without trying to fit in multiple stops. With a full-day rental, you'll typically have enough time to cruise through St. Andrews Bay, look for dolphins, explore additional shoreline, and still spend several hours anchored at Shell Island. Planning fewer destinations generally leaves more time to enjoy each stop.
