If conditions permit, guests may go into the water to see dolphins if possible. Safety is our number one priority. Your captain will teach you how safely to snorkel around marine mammals.
Panama City Dolphin Tours LLC offers Shell Island and Panama City Beach Snorkeling trips for up to 12 guests. There are no more than 6 people per boat. This makes it more personal and interactive, but also safer as you will not be sharing the boat or with others.
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.
Your captain will show you the best and safest ways to interact with dolphins. The area is known for its excellent snorkeling. You can enjoy watching the birds of prey, as well as the underwater worlds of SeaTurtles and Stingray, Seahorses Starfish & Sand Dollars.
We’ll get you as close to dolphins as we possibly can while also guaranteeing your safety and theirs. Ultimately, it’s up to the dolphins how close they want to get and how much they want to interact. We practice what we call “passive observation,” which means — in simple terms — that we let the dolphins come to us. Our dolphins in St. Andrews Bay are extraordinarily playful and interactive, though, and our guests frequently have amazing encounters they’ll remember the rest of their lives.
Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours has been providing fun, safe and memorable experiences daily in Panama City Beach for almost a decade! If you are looking for a more private tour, we offer this option on one of our center console boats!
We will bring you as close as we can to dolphins, while also ensuring 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.

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.
