Panama City Beach: Gulf World Marine Park
A dolphin tour can also be a great sightseeing opportunity. All tour boats depart Adventure at Sea in Lower Grand Lagoon. They cruise south and cross the pass between St. Andrew Bay, the Gulf of Mexico and Shell Island. While you can take in the beautiful view, spot seabirds and possibly a turtle, keep your eyes open for dolphins.
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.
Dolphinaria may want you to believe otherwise, but they are powerful ocean predators capable of killing sharks. People, dolphins, and even self-harm can all be frightened by dolphins. Although most dolphins in the U.S. are kept in captivity, the majority are wild animals.
Both locals and tourists can join us on dolphin tours to Panama City Beach. It is our number one priority to ensure that the dolphins do not get disturbed during their day. We're familiar with all the areas where schools of dolphins congregate. We'll take us all over the Gulf of Mexico so you can view these majestic dolphins in their natural environment.
Florida law prohibits dolphins being swam with and touched by humans. Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission officers will be on the water to make sure that the rules are adhered to. There are chances that dolphins will approach your boat from close range, offering you great views and great opportunities for photos. Shell Island Snorkel Tours offer the chance to encounter wild dolphins in water. Sometimes, the dolphins swim close to snorkelers.
Destin. Destin is commonly known as the Florida beach that has the clearest waters. Why is this beach so special? It's because the Choctawhatchee Bay is just beyond this beach. It acts as an filtration, taking in darker sediment and leaving clear blue waters atop Destin’s fine Quartz sand.
Although it may be possible to view captive dolphins at a Marine Park, it is much more enjoyable to see them when they are free and healthy in their natural habitat. While wild dolphins can be unpredictable and sightings may not occur on every trip, our captains have been on the waters of St. Andrew Bay for years. They are experts in the locations where dolphins might be found. Our captains will ensure that you have a wonderful time. Dolphins can often be seen playing, searching out food, and communicating with one other on most tours.
