"Captain Jack was very precise in positioning us at the moment when the dolphins were swimming right under our feet. It was a truly unique experience.
We will get you as close as possible to dolphins while still ensuring your safety and their safety. It's up the dolphins to decide how close and how often they interact with us. Passive observation is what we do. It simply means that we allow the dolphins to come to us. The dolphins of St. Andrews Bay are extremely playful and interactive. Guests often have incredible encounters that they will never forget.

Dolphins are an unrelated group of aquatic mammals that exist all around the globe. The most common dolphin in Florida is the bottlenose dolphin. Panama City Beach Snorkeling & Dolphin Tours LLC's iconic grey dolphin is what made them famous. Americans have seen dolphins do tricks for fish over the years at many marine attractions throughout the country. Recent years have seen more protections put in place for wild dolphins.

A variety of starfishes, sanddollars bay scallops, whelks conchs upto 21 inches long, seahorses urchins and hermit crabs among other crab species are common species that we see. These animals are easy to bring to the surface. They can also be photographed.

You can also take any shells you find that have not been inhabited by living creatures home.

Florida's wild dolphins can not be swam with. According to Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, it is against federal legislation to harass wild dolphins. Also, dolphins are more susceptible to being hurt in interactions with humans when they swim with people.
Dolphinaria might have you believe that dolphins are not apex predators of the ocean. They can kill sharks and should be treated accordingly. The aggressive nature of dolphins can make them dangerous to humans, other dolphins and even cause self-harm. The majority of dolphins found in the United States are kept in captivity. However, they are not domesticated.
Florida's freshwater fish can be consumed without any harm. Mercury levels are low in marine fish like Bluegill, Redear sunfish and Redbreast Sunfish.
