Amazing 3 hour tour! Captain made sure that we saw dolphins, and even took us up to a shipwreck. It was great fun for the kids to snorkel on Shell Island. It is highly recommended for all ages.

Heath and the crew were fantastic! They took care of everything. We all had a great time! They definitely deserve a big raise.

Dolphins live in the wild in their natural environment. They are not kept in tanks and they do not have to be kept in a cage. You should wear polarized sunglasses in order to avoid the harsh glare of the water and better appreciate the beauty of wild dolphins. It is extremely rare for us not to see the dolphins.

These wild animals do what they love in their natural habitat. We observe these animals on their terms, and are sensitive to their moods and activities. It is possible to have encounters quite often, but it is impossible to guarantee that they will happen. The laws of The Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1973 and its subsequent amendments as well as the laws of Florida are ours. We are forbidden from harassing or feeding dolphins. Thank you for understanding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every year, visitors flock to the white sands of Panama City Beach, and each year they are joined by some 200 different species of shark. Both are drawn to the area's crystal clear waters and abundant sea life. The double sandbar system at Panama City Beach creates a deep water channel close to shore

Snorkeling is safe and easy for people of all ages. One of the best things about Shell Island is that the calm shallow water behind the jetty is the perfect place for first-time snorkelers to try the sport.
 

Though the area boasts an average of 320 days of sunshine per year, late spring, summer and early fall offer some of the warmest air and water temperatures.
