Our Dolphin and Snorkeling tours usually begin by searching for wildlife. Our local Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins are often found. Our captains and tour guides are Panama City Beach locals who are knowledgeable about dolphin behavior in the area.

Shell Island Beach



You will see Bottlenose Dolphins on your Dolphin Tours. They are similar to the Flipper. Because they are found mostly in shallow waters, it is easy to locate them. The uniqueness of our St. Andrews Bay State Park location is the fact that it is where Dolphins hunt for food. Shell Island is also frequented by the Dolphins to see the holiday-makers. They are playful and curious in their natural environment. These amazing creatures are so fascinating to our guests, and it's easy to get close.

You may have seen captive dolphins in a marine park, but it is far more interesting to watch these beautiful animals when they are healthy and free, at home in their natural environment. And even though the behavior of wild dolphins cannot be predicted and a sighting on every trip is not guaranteed, our tour captains have years of experience being on the waters of St. Andrew Bay nearly every day. They know the places where dolphins are most likely to be found and our captains do their best to make sure guests have a great time. On most tours, dolphins are spotted jumping, playing, searching for food, and communicating with one another.

Shell Island Panama City Beach Upcoming Events



We cruise around Shell Island and all the waters surrounding St. Andrews Bay, Panama City, and Panama City Beach while looking for all kinds of wildlife and sea life. We get the chance to see different kinds of wildlife every day on our boat tours. All dolphin tours and snorkeling tours are different everyday depending on the conditions and what wildlife is currently in the area. We change our routes from day to day to give you the best dolphin tour and most pleasant boat ride possible with constantly changing water, weather, and wildlife conditions. The marine life, snorkeling spots, and stops we make on Shell Island change from tour to tour. This is great because, every time you go with us, you get to see different things! We do encourage you to let your captain know if you have any special requests of things you would like to see or do during your boat tour.
