How long can I stay on Shell Island? There is no time limit on your stay, but you must catch the last Shuttle off the Island at the end of the day.
Agree with above, go around 11 a.m., to get the best of daytime sun, because April has some fairly cool days. over a year ago. I'd plan for late morning/early afternoon. There's no shade so if it is really warm you don't want to be there at the absolute hottest part of the day.
