These are wild animals doing what they enjoy in their natural habitat. The way they behave and the mood of their encounters will determine how we interact with them. While encounters do happen quite frequently, it is not possible to guarantee their success. The laws of The Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1992 and any subsequent amendments, as well the laws of Florida, are binding. We are prohibited from harassing dolphins or feeding them, and we enforce this rule very strictly. Thank you for understanding.


Heath and his team were great! They took care everything. Everyone had a great time. They are definitely deserving of a raise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shell Island is seven miles of undeveloped scenery between the Gulf and St. Andrew Bay. At one point, Shell Island was inhabited by Native Americans, Spanish Settlers, and even pirates.

Once you get there it is all worth it, as it is the most beautiful water I've ever seen. It is like you are swimming in a pool. It is so crystal clear. We didn't know what to expect so we went planning to spend a few hours on the island. Come expecting to spend all day!

The waters around Shell Island are home to a large group of bottlenose dolphins. You can encounter these amazing marine mammals at home in their natural habitat on one of our Panama City Beach Dolphin Tours.

This island is not as secluded as you see on the pictures and we couldn't find any of the cool shells either. (I understand that it's nature and can't be controlled).
