Because we are exploring the dolphins’ natural habitat, it’s always possible that we won’t be able to find where the dolphins are playing today. However, our guides have been doing this for years, and know all the places the dolphins love to be. Virtually all of our tours encounter at least a few of the dolphins that make up the largest population of wild dolphins in the world.

"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.
You will have more time for snorkeling, as the excursion lasts three hours.
Relax and enjoy as your USCG Captain/tour guide takes to the water to show you some amazing sunsets. Enjoy your favorite drink and snacks as you enjoy the evening.
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.
Shell Island can be a little crowded during peak hours. But if you go at the right moment, you will find many shells. If you're lucky enough to go, the Panama City beaches will be awash with shells. You can find a lot of shells if you go in the morning, when the tide is low.
The Florida Keys Islamorada, Key Largo and Key Largo have become popular places for wild dolphins to be seen. You can see dolphins year-round in the Florida Keys.
Laguna Beach, Common Dolphin's Playground. Common dolphins are such a joy that they should be called extraordinary dolphins. They are our most common flipper friends, with more than 400,000 dolphins being found along the Southern California coast.
