For a relaxing 25-minute cruise to Shell Island, our snorkel area, we will leave Historic Grand Lagoon. Keep an eye out for dolphins, sea creatures and other marine life as you travel. We will either anchor along the Gulf of Mexico, Shell Island, or both. Here you can snorkel for shells, learn more about the local marine life, and just relax while taking in the sun. To hunt for shells, you can also swim through the shallow waters to Shell Island. After spending some time on Shell Island, the trip will conclude with a ride to the Gulf of Mexico where we can search for dolphins as well as sight-see.
In addition to observing dolphins, our dolphin and island tours visit beautiful Shell Island. Here we can explore the beach, hunt for shells, wade, swim, and, if conditions allow, snorkel in the crystal clear protected waters and observe a wide variety of marine life.
Out of the water, you’ll see a huge variety of birds, ranging from raptors like bald eagles and ospreys, to shorebirds like great blue herons and egrets, to seabirds like magnificent frigatebirds and terns. We also sometimes see deer on the island.
Maximum group size for our boats is 6, with a maximum capacity of 12. We can accommodate larger parties, however, with the help of our local partners.
Panama City Beachers can take a dolphin tour. Waverunners are an option for those looking for something more adventurous. Our tour boats can take you and your family on a comfortable ride as we search for wild dolphins. Your trip will be unforgettable! You can even take video and photos.

Dolphins can be seen most often at dawn between 10 am and noon and 2 pm until dusk. It is worth investing in a pair binoculars or great telephoto lenses to help you spot dolphins.
Dolphins are often regarded as friendly but they are wild animals that should be respected and treated with caution. Dolphin behavior can be affected by interactions with humans. They are easy targets for shark attack and vandalism because they lose their natural wariness.
