Saint Jo Tour $100 per person

The Saint Jo Island Tour consists of the Beach Tour plus a trip across the Ship Channel to the Lydia Ann Lighthouse and to the desolate south end of Saint Jo Island. Saint Jo is only accessible by air or boat and typically has cleaner beaches. It is a habitat for deer, coyotes, and other wildlife. This tour is about 18 to 20 minutes long depending on conditions. Most of the time the shipwreck of the S.S. John Worthington is visible in the Lydia Ann Channel!
Dolphins abound in the waters around Port A and you are very likely to see some, as well as, the occasional shark, stingray, and manta ray.
The Shark Tour $150 per person

The Shark Tour is an extension of the St. Jo Tour and carries you farther up the island to the really primitive parts of the island. You will see wrecks, wildlife, and of course, the namesake…. Sharks! (If they decide to cooperate with us!) This particular area of St. Jo's surf seems to attract all sizes up to about 4 to 5 feet in length. You will realize the ecology of the barrier islands on this tour and can see how they looked before developments and improvements on the other islands. The Shark Tour can last over 30 minutes depending on conditions.
You will thoroughly enjoy this experience and will talk about it for years to come!
