Egmont Key State Park

Egmont Key is a small, remote island (about 250 acres) located at the mouth of Tampa Bay in Hillsborough County, Florida, southwest of Fort De Soto Park. It's a unique blend of natural beauty, wildlife habitat, and rich historical significance, serving as both a National Wildlife Refuge and a State Park. Named after John Perceval, the second Earl of Egmont (a British politician in the Irish House of Commons in 1763), the island has witnessed events from Spanish conquistadors in the 1500s to nuclear submarines in modern times passing through Tampa Bay. It's accessible only by boat or ferry, making it a secluded escape from the mainland

  • Great Boating With a Tinge of Haphazardness

    We overall enjoyed being on the boat and water. The sites are pretty and, as luck would have it, we did see some dolphins! With that said, the logistics and organization felt a little bit off. I outline this below: • The instructions say to arrive 25-30 minutes early for check in and waiver signing. We arrived at 11:30 and no one was there. • A gentleman approached us and was confused where the driver was. Turns out he was there to fill the boat with fuel. Our guide showed up at about 11:45 and said the fuel guy wasn’t answering his phone. • We never signed a waiver. And we had to ask who were speaking to; we didn’t know who we were getting in the boat with until we confirmed the Captain’s name. • Then, there was some perceived surprise that there were only two of us and that we didn’t have a cooler or anything with us. Our reservation was for two people and we weren’t aware we could bring anything. • We were then prompted with something to the effect of “we can go wherever you want.” We aren’t from Florida and have no idea where to go. • Indeed, the reservation was clear it was “about 2 hours.” We docked at 1:18pm (about 78 minutes on the water) and there was a fuel surcharge. So I’m not sure if we paid for 2 hours of fuel? Overall, it all felt a little haphazard. Our perception was that our tour was forgotten about. I don’t think that was the actual case, it was just looking that way based on how the above unfolded. Some people do follow instructions to a T; the waiting alone at an empty dock, not sure where we were or what was going on, and the overall realization we were allegedly underprepared was a little daunting. I’m not sure we would do this again. For $400 (including tip) it was not quite what we imagined.
