We had an amazing time! Christian, our captain of the boat, was fantastic. Our group ranged in age from 2 years to 81, and everyone had a blast. We went to Shell Island, met dolphins, touched jellyfish cannonballs, and enjoyed the boat trip. Christo was polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. Christo was a great captain. Lagoon Pontoons booked staff were very helpful and friendly. They answered all questions and provided suggestions for seniors and toddlers. 5 stars!! !
Our 2-hour Dolphin Boat Tours allow for a more personal dolphin experience. This tour is limited to a small group and allows you to swim with dolphins, snorkel for sand dollars, and explore Shell Island. Book your own private tour. Our captains have years of experience and are experts in finding the best spots to view Dolphins.

If we swim parallel to dolphins instead of swimming towards them or reaching out to them (which is also illegal), then this will be the best, most ethical way to allow dolphins to come to our aid.
