We had an amazing time! Christian, our captain of the boat, was fantastic. Our group ranged in age from 2 years to 81, and everyone had a blast. We went to Shell Island, met dolphins, touched jellyfish cannonballs, and enjoyed the boat trip. Christo was polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. Christo was a great captain. Lagoon Pontoons booked staff were very helpful and friendly. They answered all questions and provided suggestions for seniors and toddlers. 5 stars!! !

Reserve the whole boat on a private tour for only your group. This is your tour. This tour can be tailored to your preferences. A private charter can only accommodate six people.
Our boats can be used as real diving boats. The children will love to see dolphins and have the chance to snorkel in water just like SCUBA divers.
The dolphins will not arrive until you enter the water. This will make the dolphins curious and they will swim towards you instead of away. Dolphins can be very finicky, so the more we pretend they aren't there, the more curious and curious they will become.
You'll see the best of St Andrews Bay in terms of wildlife on the second leg. These include pelicans, birds like herons and ospreys, as well as marine life such a hermit crab, blue crabs or sea horses. Shell Island is the best place to look for shells and sanddollars. You can also snorkel in grass flats and explore St. Andrews Bay, along the Gulf of Mexico.
Your group and you will be in the water before the dolphins. The dolphins will be more interested in you and your group than swimming away. The best way to get dolphins' attention is to not show any interest in them. This is a common occurrence among people who seem to only be interested in someone they love when they show the least amount of care. This is how your mom met your dad, and you can easily explain it to yourself.
We can accommodate up to 6 persons per boat. A maximum of 12 people is allowed. We can accommodate groups up to six people on each boat.
You will find some of the most beautiful beaches and snorkeling spots on Florida's coasts! Mexico Beach and Port St. Joe offer adventure options.
