I will be heading to Keaton Beach in the gulf for another scalloping adventure Weds Aug 4th & 5th. My boat is full, I am taking SwampAngel, DragonFly and Austin back out because we kinda got robbed at Steinhatchee June 28-29th due to Tropical Storm Alex squalls and the fact I do not mess with lightening.
We are staying at the Keaton Marina at their motel [$69 plus 10% tax], they give you a free boat slip. You rent a cottage for $99 + 10% tax but you have a min of 2 night stay and also get a free boat slip. We chose Weds-Thurs so we could get a room, weekends are zoo, and the ramps tend to be a single ramp with a lot of ppl dropping and folks pulling out.
Here is the link to Keaton Marina Keaton Beach Marina & Lodging
You DO NOT have to spend an overnight to join us, just tow up and we will hook up. The drive is about 160 miles, 3 hours.
Scallop season ends 10 September and it is hard to reserve lodging for weekends. You are allowed 2 gallons with shells on, or 1 pint cleaned per person not to exceed a boat limit of 10 gallons.
