The waters around Shell Island are home to a large group of bottlenose dolphins. You can encounter these amazing marine mammals at home in their natural habitat on one of our Panama City Beach Dolphin Tours.

Snorkeling in Panama City Beach



We’ll put you in the water before the dolphins arrive. That way, the dolphins are more likely to come to us rather than swim away. Unlike the larger tour boats that carry up to 150 people, Blue Dolphin Tours carries only 6 passengers (children included). We can have you in the water with your snorkel gear on quickly and without all the splashing and disruptions that large groups create, often frightening the dolphins away. We have 5 identical boats for larger groups, up to 30 persons limited to 6 per boat. We also have a new Large Family Blue Dolphin for up to 15 passengers. Sorry no pets allowed on boats.

A dolphin tour is also a wonderful sightseeing opportunity. All tour boats depart from the docks at Adventure at Sea in Lower Grand Lagoon and cruise south, crossing the pass between St. Andrew Bay and the Gulf of Mexico on the way toward Shell Island. You can enjoy the view and spot sea birds and maybe a sea turtle while keeping a sharp eye open for dolphins.

Do dolphins pull people under



Six passengers are allowed on the Panama City Beach Dolphin Tours. This allows our guests to tour St. Andrew Bay in comfort and allow them to interact with the tour guide. Your captain will take all your questions and allow you to snap pictures and film video.

Enjoy a wonderful dolphin encounter with our four different interactive swimming with dolphins programs, where you'll be able to play and swim with the cutest marine animal that ever existed. You only need to choose your favorite and have fun.

The best time to see and swim with dolphins is in the early part of the morning when they are feeding. You might also go out later in the day before the sun sets. You can spot dolphins at any time of day, really, but less traffic makes them easier to spot.
