Panama City Beach Dolphin and Snorkel Tours

Book a private tour to reserve the entire boat exclusively for your party. This is your own personal tour. Customize the tour to your liking. Six guests maximum per private charter.

We’ll put you in the water before the dolphins arrive. That way, the dolphins are more likely to come to us rather than swim away. Unlike the larger tour boats that carry up to 150 people, Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC carries only 6 passengers (children included). We can have you in the water with your snorkel gear on quickly and without all the splashing and disruptions that large groups create, often frightening the dolphins away. We have 5 identical boats for larger groups, up to 30 persons limited to 6 per boat. We also have a new Large Family Dolphin for up to 15 passengers.

Dolphin Tours: 8am-10am, 1pm-3pm, 3:30pm-5.30pm and 6pm-8pm (Sunset Tour).
