Scalloping Season – The Nature Coast's Signature Adventure

Summer scalloping season is one of Florida's most anticipated coastal traditions, and you're perfectly positioned to experience it. Launch directly from your dock and cruise into the crystal-clear Gulf waters where families and friends spend unforgettable days collecting bay scallops in shallow grass flats.

Part treasure hunt, part snorkeling adventure, scalloping is a uniquely Florida experience that keeps visitors returning year after year. Few places offer better access than Homosassa and the surrounding Nature Coast.

For hunters, the region offers access to thousands of acres of public lands and wildlife management areas, including nearby Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area and Withlacoochee State Forest. Seasonal opportunities include deer, turkey, wild hog, waterfowl, and small game hunting, making this an ideal destination for sportsmen and outdoor adventurers.
