How Much Is The Ferry To Shell Island

Are you looking for activities in Panama City Beach Florida Shell Island and St. Andrews State Park should be on your list. You can rent watersport gear and pontoon boats or take a Dolphin Tour to see bottlenose dolphins.
There are many things to do in Panama City Beach Florida. But there is one thing that you should not miss. Shell Island is at the southern end of the long stretch resort hotels and condominiums that line Panama City Beach's white sands, and it is just across from St. Andrews State Park. This island offers a stunning slice of Florida coastline for beach-lovers and outdoor adventurers.

The natural reserve of St. Andrews State Park, located in Panama City Beach Florida's south-eastern part of the city, includes the Shell Island barrier island (7 miles long). The undeveloped stretch of beach, scrubland and pine hammocks that separate St. Andrews Bay is separated from the Gulf of Mexico's open waters. Shell Island is home to wildlife and marine animals. It's a paradise for beach lovers who want to spend a day in a natural setting far from the condominiums and resorts that line the northern shore.
For Panama City Beach residents looking for unspoiled white-sand beaches, Shell Island is a must-see spot. There is plenty of beach space on the island, as well as calm inshore waters that are ideal for snorkeling and swimming. The waters around the island are home to many colorful tropical fish, sea turtles, and dolphins. Walking the interior of Shell Island on land is a great way to discover rare coastal plants and bird species, as well as wildlife communities.

And of course, seeing Shell Island is only part of the tour! As we cross out to the island. Keep a sharp eye out for dolphins, because we often see wild schools of dolphins in the area. You could also make a Shell Island rest stop part of a charter fishing trip.
