Observant Outdoor Family

Observant Outdoor Family

First light on the water is amazing.  I enjoyed the company of Alasdair, Virginia and their creative daughters Emma and Molly. The whole family loves the great outdoors and appreciates the wildlife that calls it home. Emma is a budding photographer and sees the landscape on a whole new level through her lens. I learned alot from her subtle observations. Alasdair is an excellent observer of bird life and wildlife as a whole, I enjoyed learning from the wildlife he observed. Virgina and Molly collected many unique shells and enjoyed the experience as much as the shells. Thank you for a educational and fulfilling trip.

I have been a Shelling Guide to Cayo Costa State Park since 1995. Many people know me as the Shelling Guide and Captain with Captiva Cruises over the past 20 years. In 2016 I began solely offering private small boat charters to the islands of Pine Island Sound including Cayo Costa State Park, Cabbage Key, Useppa Island, Pine Island and North Captiva. I am a certified Florida Master Naturalist, licensed USCG Captain, avocational photographer, seashell enthusiast and passionate about the history, people and culture of Southwest Florida, especially Cayo Costa. I volunteer as a member of Friends of Cayo Costa State Park and have great respect for the heritage of Cayo Costa. My goal is to provide guests with an overall experience and appreciation for the waters, islands, shells, plants, marine life, wildlife, history and people of this unique area of Southwest Florida.
