"St. Andrews bay is home to more than 2,900 species. It is America's most varied estuary. The clear waters of St. Andrews Bay can hold almost every species you could imagine. It is also one coast estuary with the highest risk. We must continue to protect it. Mike Brim Executive Director St. Andrews Bay Environmental Science Team.
Let's look at the top Shell Island dolphin tours available for tourists who want to view dolphins in their natural habitat.
Note that not all tour companies and rental jet skis have the same minimum age requirements as other companies. Therefore, this option may not be suitable for families with children.
St. Andrew Bay's dolphins are wild animals. Therefore, it is difficult to predict when they will be most active. The season, weather, tide cycles and availability of prey all influence dolphin behavior. There is generally a good chance that dolphins will be seen when the sun is shining and the water is clear and calm. Feeding activities can usually be seen at an outgoing tide. You are best to find a dolphin tour operator such as Panama City Beach Dolphin Tours, which is available almost every day of the year.
Private dolphin tours for up 6 people are $300, or $50/person. This is an excellent deal for groups this large! Dolphin Seafari welcomes larger groups with advance notice. To confirm availability, please call 850-968-8107 if you have more than 6 people.

We often start our Dolphin and Snorkeling tour by looking out for wildlife. We are usually able to find our Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins. Our Tour guides and Captains are both locals and have extensive knowledge about dolphin behavior and the Panama City Beach area.
These tours emphasize in-water interaction. Our guides will take you to a hot spot for dolphins so you can jump in and swim with them.
That’s really up to you. The boat tour is often better for those traveling with young kids, or those with more limited mobility, but it really depends on you. If you’re not sure if your group would do better on Waverunners or boats, give us a call, and we’ll help you decide what would be best.
We have been taking guests on dolphin tours for many decades. We carefully follow all safety regulations to ensure the well-being of our guests and the dolphins. Additionally, our comfortable, safe tour boats are fully equipped and insured by the US Coast Guard. Our Panama City Beach Dolphin Tours offer guests of all age a lot of enjoyment and safety.

The White Sand Beach of Dreams Shell Island in Florida is unique because it stretches for almost seven miles and has nothing but pure white sandy sand. It's a totally undeveloped area.
Low tide is the best time to be on the beach, especially if the tides are low in the morning. It is often just a matter of finding the right moment to be on the beach and looking for seashells. This is especially true after storms or strong winds. Even better can be low spring tides at full moon and new moon times.
There is no limit. You can't take anything that lives on the island. Each person receives a large bag for collecting shells.
