Gabby's Dolphin Tours PCB, a private charter company and boat tour operator offering guided snorkeling and swimming alongside wild dolphins in beautiful Panama City Beach, Florida. This once-in-a lifetime experience is available to all ages, including families and individuals.

Our Dolphin & Island Tours typically last for three hours. The departure time varies depending on season. At the moment, we leave the dock around 9:00 a.m. & 12:30 p.m.
Additionally, we often see manatees. If conditions allow, you may enter the water near manatees, but we practice passive observation and never approach them.
Swimming parallel with the dolphins rather than swimming toward them or reaching out for them (this is also illegal), we will allow the dolphins to come to us (best, most ethical method).
Book a private tour to reserve the entire boat exclusively for your party. This is your own personal tour. Customize the tour to your liking. Six guests maximum per private charter.
We will reserve the boat for your group or family, and the captain, during our private dolphin tour. Coast Guard regulations stipulate that 6 passengers are allowed, including children and infants.
We had a wonderful trip! Christian, our captain, was an outstanding leader. We had everyone have fun, from children as young as 2 years old to those who are 81 years. We got to see dolphins, touched a jellyfish made of cannonballs, went to Shell Island and enjoyed the boat ride. Christo was extremely polite, friendly, and knowledgeable. Christo is our captain. Lagoon Pontoons booking staff was helpful and friendly. They answered all of my questions and offered suggestions for senior citizens and toddlers. 5 stars!! !
After you reach your snorkeling spot, your experienced captain will join you in the water with you to help you locate marine life. You will have the option to arrange your own private tour so you can make it as enjoyable as possible.
Private tours are available to reserve the entire boat only for you. This is your personalized tour. You can personalize your tour. A private charter may only be used by six people.
This Dolphin Tour boat has a maximum of six passengers. That's six more than the 175-person capacity of larger tour boats. Larger groups create too much noise, which can disturb the dolphins, driving them away. The best part is that we will quickly get you in to the water, and not scare away the dolphins.

Shell Island in Panama City Beach is a great place to see wild dolphin pods. Shell Island, located across the water from Saint Andrew's Park, is 7 miles of incredible beach bliss. This natural wonder is one of the best places in Panama City Beach to see and swim with dolphins.
Dolphins are most likely to be seen when the sun is shining and the water is calm and clear. Feeding activities are typically observed on an incoming tide. Choose a dolphin tour operator that is on the water nearly every day of the year, such as Panama City Beach Dolphin Tours.
