We do need to note that dolphins are wild animals. Although we know all the places they’re likely to be, very rarely the dolphins evade us. When you book your tour with Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC, whether you want to be close to the water or relax on the deck of our pontoon boats. We’ll do everything possible to make sure you don’t miss this iconic piece of Florida’s natural landscape. Contact us today to book your date!
We often see manatees. If you have the opportunity, you can go into the water with manatees. We practice passive observation, and we never approach them.

Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours provides fun, safe, and memorable experiences in Panama City Beach almost a decade. A center console boat is also available for private tours.
We see many species, including starfish, sand dollar, bay scallops. Whelks. Conchs up to 212" long. Seahorses, Urchins. Hermit crabs. These animals can be brought up to the surface, handled gently, and photographed. We bring large containers so that snorkelers, as well as non-snorkelers, can get close to the animals before they are released into the bay. The shells of non-living creatures can be taken home.
We will bring you as close as we can to dolphins, while also ensuring their safety. The dolphins decide how close they want and how much interaction they want. "Passive observation" is a practice that allows dolphins to approach us. Our guests often have unforgettable encounters with dolphins at St. Andrews Bay. They are playful and interactive and will always remember them.
Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC has highly-trained and experienced captains who are skilled in spotting, observing and interpreting dolphin behavior and movements. We keep the boat safe and show you how to get into the water to have a closer look at the dolphins.
"Captain Jack placed us just at the right moment to view the dolphins swim under our feet. It made for a unique experience."
SeaWorld's Jacobs noted: "Animal remains are always disposed of according to state law and zoological best practices. Many skeletons are donated for scientific research or museums to ensure that the animal's knowledge and education can continue after their death.
A: It is possible to travel to Shell Island by boat or jet ski. The St. Andrews Shuttle from Shell Island costs $24.95 for 13-year-olds, $17.95 per child 2-12 years, and infants 0-1 year old are free. You can also rent a pontoon or jet ski at many locations.
Tail slapping - Dolphins simply slap their heads against the water to stun them with the shockwave. Kerplunking, which is cool and named after its sounds, is another cool behaviour.
