Snorkeling And Dolphin CruiseDiscover some of the most secluded snorkeling sites and beaches in Florida! Adventures departing from Mexico Beach and Port St. Joe.
Local captains are friendly and have decades of experience in these waters. They also have a wealth knowledge about manatees and dolphins. They will customize your trip to suit your needs and are happy to show you the beauty of this beautiful area.
Instead of swimming in front of the dolphins (which is illegal), we will swim parallel with them, instead of reaching out for them (which also violates the law). This will allow them to approach us ethically.
Our Carolina Skiffs (21-foot) and 23-foot Carolina Skiffs (23-foot) are comfortable, stable and safe for dolphin and island tours. These boats feature a central console design to maximize space and allow easy movement around the boat. A fully cushioned forward deck allows for observation (and lounging), and comfortable seats for the whole group. Large bimini tops provide shade and ice chest space.

We had a wonderful trip. The captain was amazing. He even showed us a jellyfish that doesn't sting. The shell island had many shells so we stopped there. Everyone had a great time. We will definitely be back.

You can relate this to people who only seem to get interested in someone they are dating when that person shows the least indication of caring. Ask your mmm about this, she probably was in the same kind of situation when dating your dad!
On the second leg, you will see the best of St Andrews Bay in terms of wildlife. These include pelicans, birds such as herons, ospreys or ospreys, as well underwater marine life such hermit and blue crabs, sea horses, blue and hermit urchins. Shell Island is a great place to explore for people who are interested in shells, sand dollars, and other marine life. Enjoy snorkeling in the Gulf of Mexico and discovering St. Andrews Bay.
We'll bring you as close as possible and ensure your safety as well as their safety. The dolphins decide how close they want and how much interaction they want. "Passive observation" is a practice that allows dolphins to approach us. Our guests often have unforgettable encounters with dolphins at St. Andrews Bay. They are playful and interactive and will always remember them.
Book a private tour with your group. Private charters allow you to extend your private dolphin tour by adding additional time (starting at 2 to 3 hours). This allows you to add more snorkeling locations, island time, and so on. Thirteen passengers can be accommodated on a boat. The captain will show you how to get into the water and observe the dolphins in their natural habitat. Next, take a guided snorkel trip to see other marine life around Shell Island.
At Gabby's Dolphin Tours PCB, our captains are highly trained and experienced in spotting, observing, and interpreting dolphin’s behavior and movements. We place the boat at a safe distance and instruct you when to get in the water to get a closer look and mingle with them.
Dolphins are most active at dawn, between 10 a.m. and noon, and from 2 p.m. to dusk. A good pair of telephoto lenses or binoculars can be extremely useful for spotting dolphins.
Islamorada and Key Largo are popular locations for seeing the animals in the wild. The Florida Keys are a popular breeding ground for dolphins, so you can see them all year.
