Captain Jack was an amazing man. He was extremely educated. He helped us choose the most important thing and we chose dolphin sightings for the bulk of our time.

We will depart into Historic Grand Lagoon for a 25-minute relaxing cruise out to our snorkel area, Shell Island! Along the way, be on the lookout for dolphins and other sea animals in their natural habitat. When we arrive, we will anchor in the Gulf of Mexico or along Shell Island where you can snorkel for seashells and catch a glimpse of the underwater world, learn about local sea-life, or just relax and float while you take in the sun. You can also wade through the shallow water onto Shell Island to hunt for shells. After we have spent some time at Shell Island, we will end the trip with a ride out to the Gulf of Mexico to search for dolphins and sight-see along the way.

"This was a highlight on our Florida trip. We felt safe and enjoyed ourselves. And, we also learned some new things. Captain Jack was friendly and knowledgeable. He was also accommodating. —

Any shells found with no living creatures can be taken home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Panama City Beach is just east from Destin on Hwy 98. These beaches have been voted the best in the country. The St. Andrew Bay filters large amounts of sediment out and there is virtually no runoff from rivers in the area.

It was a story that dolphins protected sailors in ancient Greece, which even appeared on an episode of Flipper. This idea is so fascinating that many people find it amazing. It's not true, unfortunately.
