What To Expect

2 hours • Admission Ticket Included

Keewaydin Island

We stop at a beautiful, serene, secluded part of the long Keewaydin Island beach, which stretches into the Horizon.

The sandy white beach offers a lot of beautiful intact seashells, which we can collect. We can also go swimming or explore some of the hidden off-the-beaten-path trails. Often there is interesting wildlife to see like turtles, lizards and different species of birds. A small picknick is also a possible at the beach. You can bring your own food but we do have small snacks and a variety of sodas.

You can choose if you want to stay longer on the island or leave earlier to enjoy more from the viewpoint on the boat. Since this is a private trip it is up to you. You can tell the captain what you would rather like to do.
45 minutes • Admission Ticket Free
