Scalloping
Steinhatchee is a premier Big Bend scalloping destination. The shallow Gulf flats off the river mouth hold bay scallops during the open harvest season, making it ideal for multi-day summer weekends.
Steinhatchee is located within one of Florida's regulated bay-scallop harvest zones. Season dates and harvest regulations must be checked with FWC before every trip.
Launch availability, parking, fees, regulations and water conditions can change. Surfside confirms the approved launch location and permitted operating area for each Take-It-Anywhere rental before departure. Renters are responsible for following current boating, fishing, wildlife and marine-protection regulations.
Surfside destination guides are trip-planning resources and do not replace charts, onboard navigation, official regulatory information or required pre-rental safety instruction.
