"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 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.

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. —

There are many birds that can be seen out of water. They include raptors like bald Eagles and Ospreys as well as shorebirds like great Blue Herons and Egrets. Seabirds include magnificent frigatebirds (terns) and terns. There are also deer sometimes found on the island.

Over years of observation, our guides have become experts in finding bottlenose dolphins. They also safely guide our guests on how they can enter the water to observe the dolphins in their natural habitat. Your captain will accompany you on a snorkel trip to show you starfish and pufferfish as well as welch conschs and other sea creatures.

We will depart into Historic Grand Lagoon for a 25-minute relaxing cruise out to our snorkel area, Shell Island! Along the way, be on the lookout for dolphins and other sea animals in their natural habitat. When we arrive, we will anchor in the Gulf of Mexico or along Shell Island where you can snorkel for seashells and catch a glimpse of the underwater world, learn about local sea-life, or just relax and float while you take in the sun. You can also wade through the shallow water onto Shell Island to hunt for shells. After we have spent some time at Shell Island, we will end the trip with a ride out to the Gulf of Mexico to search for dolphins and sight-see along the way.
