Florida law forbids dolphins from swimming or touching them. This is to ensure their well-being. The Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission has officers on the water to enforce these rules. You may have the opportunity to see dolphins from your boat, which will give you a great view and great photos. You can have wild dolphin encounters with dolphins by taking one of our Shell Island Snorkel Tours. Dolphins often swim close to snorkelers.
We will get you in the water before they arrive. This will make it more likely that the dolphins swim to us, rather than to us. Blue Dolphin Tours is smaller than larger boats, which can carry as many as 150 people. We only have 6 passengers (children and adults included). You can be in the water quickly with your snorkel gear on without any disruptions or splashing that large groups often cause, which can sometimes scare the dolphins away. For larger groups of up to 30 people, we have five identical boats. We limit the number to six per boat. A large family blue dolphin for up to 15 people is also available. No pets are allowed on the boats.
