Panama City Dolphin Tours and Shell Island Trips with Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC can be booked for a maximum 12 people (maximum 6 per boat). This allows for a more intimate and interactive experience, as well as a safer trip because you won't share the boat with anyone else.
Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC has highly-trained and experienced captains who are skilled in spotting, observing and interpreting dolphin behavior and movements. We keep the boat safe and show you how to get into the water to have a closer look at the dolphins.
We see many species, including starfish, sand dollar, bay scallops. Whelks. Conchs up to 212" long. Seahorses, Urchins. Hermit crabs. These animals can be brought up to the surface, handled gently, and photographed. We bring large containers so that snorkelers, as well as non-snorkelers, can get close to the animals before they are released into the bay. The shells of non-living creatures can be taken home.
We will put you in water before the dolphins come. The dolphins will likely swim right past us and come to us instead of swimming away. Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC has six passengers, including children. We can have you on the water in no time with your snorkel gear and without the chaos that large groups can cause. Five identical boats are available for larger groups. There is also a Large Family Dolphin that can hold up to 15 people.

For a relaxing 25-minute cruise to Shell Island, our snorkel area, we will leave Historic Grand Lagoon. Keep an eye out for dolphins, sea creatures and other marine life as you travel. We will either anchor along the Gulf of Mexico, Shell Island, or both. Here you can snorkel for shells, learn more about the local marine life, and just relax while taking in the sun. To hunt for shells, you can also swim through the shallow waters to Shell Island. After spending some time on Shell Island, the trip will conclude with a ride to the Gulf of Mexico where we can search for dolphins as well as sight-see.
If conditions allow, guests are welcome to get in the water when dolphins are nearby. Safety is always our first priority, and your captain will instruct you how to safely snorkel around marine mammals.
It is worth the effort once you reach it. This is some of my favorite water spots. It's almost like swimming in a pool. We were unsure what to expect so we decided to spend some time on the island. Expect to spend the whole day there!
