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.

Dolphins are an unrelated group of aquatic mammals that exist all around the globe. The most common dolphin in Florida is the bottlenose dolphin. Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC's iconic grey dolphin is what made them famous. Americans have seen dolphins do tricks for fish over the years at many marine attractions throughout the country. Recent years have seen more protections put in place for wild dolphins.
To satisfy their curiosity, dolphins might swim alongside boats. Dolphins are often drawn to the wake of a boat, which causes a disturbance to the water's surface. They will jump out of the water and appear to be playing in the wake when they do this.
