St. Andrew Bay's dolphins live in wild environments. This makes it difficult to know when the best time is to see them. The weather, tide cycles, tides and availability, among other factors, can affect dolphin behavior. There is a good chance to see dolphins whenever the sun is out and water is calm and clear. Feeding activities will usually be observed on an outgoing wave. Shell Island Dolphin Tours can be your best choice if you want to visit dolphins almost every day.
If conditions permit, sometimes we can snorkel with dolphins. They are wild dolphins that have their own mind. We do not feed, harass or harass dolphins. It is because of this that we cannot guarantee dolphin swimming. All our boat tours comply with and support the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
