Additionally, we often see manatees. If conditions allow, you may enter the water near manatees, but we practice passive observation and never approach them.
The captain will take you to your snorkeling location and help you find seashells. This private tour allows you to customize the way you wish to spend your time.
For your Florida vacation, you want a fun and unique experience. Gabby's Dolphin Tours PCB has more information about Shell Island snorkeling, and dolphin tours. We look forward seeing you soon!
We had a wonderful time! Our captain, Christian, was excellent. We had a group from 2 yrs to 81 years old, and everyone had fun. We saw dolphins, touched a cannonball jellyfish, went to Shell Island, and enjoyed the boat ride. Christo was knowledgeable, friendly and very polite. We will definitely be back and will request Christo as our captain. The booking staff at Lagoon Pontoons was friendly and easy to work with. They answered all of our questions and even helped with suggestions for accommodating toddlers and senior citizens. 5 stars!!!
Captain Jack was amazing. He was extremely well-informed. He allowed us to choose what was important. We chose dolphin sightings for most of our time."
Gabby's Dolphin Tours PCB is a private charter and boat tour company offering guided snorkeling and swimming with wild dolphins in gorgeous Panama City Beach, Florida. We cater to families, individuals, and groups of all sizes so everyone can have a chance at this once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Our boat will allow you to snorkel to your heart's content and you won't have to pay an extra cent! The onboard cooler will provide complimentary Capri Suns or bottled water for your refreshments. You can also bring your own drinks, snacks, and BYOB.
Your privacy will always be guaranteed when you take a private dolphin tour. There will only ever be your family or friends on board, along with the captain. Keep in Mind that the Coast Guard sets the maximum number of passengers at 13. All ages welcome.
Compared to other bigger tour boats that have a capacity of up to 175 tour goers, this Dolphin Tour boat carries a maximum of six passengers, including kids of all ages. Now, larger groups always create lots of noise, which disturbs the dolphins and drives them away. The best thing is that we will expertly get you in the water fast, and most importantly, without scaring the dolphins away.
On your excursion you will visit Panama City Pass as well as the area where St. Andrews Bay converges with the Gulf of Mexico. Here you will find dolphins. We will show the way to get in and close up.
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.
Our purpose is to serve a purpose. We provide Panama City Beach dolphin tours that are educational and allow for a better appreciation and understanding of wildlife. We take precautions to ensure that we don't disturb or harm wildlife. We will be grateful to the dolphins for choosing an eco-tour operator who cares.
Our Dolphin & Island Tours last approximately 3 hours. Seasonally, departure times may vary. We currently leave the dock at 9:00 am and 12:30 pm.
You'll be able watch the dolphins up close with the help of your captain.
It's all worth it once you get there because the water is the most beautiful I've ever seen. The water is so clear that it feels like you're swimming in a pool. We had no idea what to expect, so we went with the intention of spending a few hours on the island. Come prepared to spend the entire day!
Dolphins, loggerhead turtles, green sea turtles, ghost crabs, beach mice, nine-banded armadillos, alligators that live in the island's lake, marsh rabbits, racoons, and other wildlife can be found on Shell Island.
Wear nothing but a swimsuit. Dolphins have extremely sensitive skin, and because you will be able to touch them during your interaction, we recommend that you refrain from wearing sunscreen, oils, or perfumes.
