We often see a variety starfish, sanddollars, bay scallops and whelks. Also, conchs up 21 inches long, seahorses and urchins as well as hermit crabs and other species of crabs are all common. These animals can be brought to surface and photographed. Large containers are brought so that everyone can see them close up before they're released into the bay. You can take home any shells that are not made of living creatures.
All Panama City Beach residents can enjoy a dolphin tour. Waverunners can be rented for an adventurous ride. Our tour boats are great for families with young children or those who just want to relax and enjoy the ride while we search for wild dolphins. You can also take photos and video to make your trip memorable.
You would like to book a private tour of the dolphins for your group? Customers can add time to their private dolphin tour, starting at 2 or 3 hour, to add extra activities such as snorkeling, island time, etc. Each boat can hold 6 people. Your captain will guide you in how to enter the water and view the dolphins as they live in their natural environment. Next, enjoy a guided snorkeling tour to view other sea creatures around Shell Island.
We take both locals and visitors on dolphin tours in Panama City Beach. Our number one priority is to ensure that dolphins don't get disturbed in their daily lives. We know where dolphin schools congregate and will take you around the beautiful Gulf of Mexico to see them in their natural habitat.
We'll bring you as close and as safe as possible to dolphins. It is up to the dolphins to decide how near they want to go and how much interaction. We practice what we call passive observation. This means, in simple terms, that we allow dolphins to come and visit us. Our guests are often treated to amazing encounters with our dolphins in St. Andrews Bay.
