All year, dolphins can be found at Panama City Beach! Your dolphin tour will allow you to see wild dolphins in their natural habitat. We go the extra mile, or even 10 miles! The marina is close to the dolphins' habitat so you have the best chance of seeing them.
What should you bring? The majority of what you need is available on board. However, you can bring any item you like. If the temperature drops below 80 degrees we recommend bringing a towel, sunglasses with polarization, and a sweater or jacket. A breeze keeps it cooler on an open boat.

They cruise south and cross the pass between St. Andrew Bay, the Gulf of Mexico and Shell Island. While you can take in the beautiful view, spot seabirds and possibly a turtle, keep your eyes open for dolphins.
