Let Wrightsville Beach Scenic Tours and the Cape Fear Naturalist not only take you there, but help you truly explore it.

Build your shell collection on a guided Masonboro Island Shelling Tour.  The Cape Fear Naturalist offers guided 1 ½ hour shelling trips several times per week during the summer, providing boat, captain, collection bags and a knowledgeable guide. Shells you might find: The Scotch Bonnet, the state shell of North Carolina, Baby’s Ear, Lettered Olive, Shark eye, Horse conch, and many more.
