This 3 hour tour was amazing! Captain made sure we saw the dolphins and even took us over the top of a shipwreck! Snorkeling on Shell Island was super fun and the kids loved it. Highly recommended for everyone no matter your age.

These wild animals live in their natural habitats and do what is best for them. Their behavior and mood dictate how they interact with us. Although encounters are common, we cannot guarantee they. The Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1982 and subsequent amendments to it, along with the laws of Florida, bind us. We are strictly prohibited from feeding and harassing dolphins. Thank you for understanding.

As if you were heading to Captain Anderson's, turn onto North Lagoon. Continue on North Lagoon past their parking lot and past the Lighthouse Marina. You will find us on your right side, underneath the trees/down the gravel road. Our company name will be displayed on signs.

Snorkeling is great around the St. Andrews State Park beach, and also on Shell Island. Habitats can range from sandy bottom to shallow grassy flats to the rock faces of the jetties. See tropical fishes, crabs, and rays. You might also see a turtle or some bottle nose dolphins if you are fortunate. Snorkel equipment can be rented from the Jetty Store. You may also purchase it as part or a complete package, which includes shuttle tickets and snorkel gear on a Shell Island Snorkel Tour.
