Dolphins are a loose grouping of different aquatic mammals that live all over the world. In Florida, the most common dolphin is the bottlenose dolphin. The iconic grey dolphin that Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC made famous. For many years, Americans were used to see dolphins perform tricks for fish at various marine attractions around the country. But in recent years, more protections have been put in place around wild dolphins.

Florida's wild dolphins can not be swam with. According to Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, it is against federal legislation to harass wild dolphins. Also, dolphins are more susceptible to being hurt in interactions with humans when they swim with people.
Yes, the beach is the same. There are many great restaurants in Destin, and I like to shop there (I can also go to the Pier Park shops at my mall).
