What to Expect

“Wild horses couldn't drag me away.”
Songwriters: Keith Richards / Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones

Join us for the ultimate trifecta of excursions with the Boat, Walk, Beach experience, a favorite among our customers.

Experience the most popular private excursion from Coral Bay Marina: a scenic boat ride through the Intracoastal Waterway to remote Shackleford Banks, a guided walk led by Captain Mark or Captain Carolyn through a maritime forest, dunes, and grasslands to spot the famous Wild Banker Horses, and time on an undeveloped beach for discovering wonderful shelling. The beauty of the dunes and waves becomes our companion along this secluded shoreline, far from the ferry routes. A refreshing dip in Shackleford's protected waters offers a perfect respite for families on a warm day.

You will be given the official H2O Captain Shelling Bag as your keepsake. The tour also visits four islands in the Rachel Carson Estuarine Reserve, the quaint town of Beaufort and its waterfront, and the fishing village of Morehead City and its waterfront before returning to the marina. Free parking at the marina is included.

This tour promises an Instagram-worthy day and is our most popular adventure!
