Shell Island is about 12 miles long and completely undeveloped. Most of the land is administered as a part of nearby St. Andrews State Park and the only way to get there is by boat. When you arrive you will encounter a pristine wilderness paradise located a mere stones throw from a bustling commerical harbor and nearby miltary bases. For $16 you get a three and half hour tour (lunch included) with a one hour stay on the island to collect shells and frolic in the crystal clear waters of its Gulf beach front. This being Florida the boat has a snack concession and a full service bar. What more could y'all want? After Memorial Day there are three trips a day so you can arrange to stay longer on the island if you so desire. So what are you waiting for? Get thee to Shell Island!

Hey beamis,
I've started a new site called "The Sea of Silence", and it's a "social content network" based on coRank. It's a place where people submit, share, vote and promote content, web pages, news, photos, stories, and more.
The Sea of Silence was created in the hopes of increasing wilderness awareness and providing a place for discussion about wilderness issues. The site was created to provide an outlet for passionate defenders of wild places.
I look forward to seeing some of your submissions on wilderness there. Your free market perspective always keeps the socialists on their toes.
Thanks!
Frank (RangerX)
and now for the address!
