These wild animals do what they love in their natural habitat. We observe these animals on their terms, and are sensitive to their moods and activities. It is possible to have encounters quite often, but it is impossible to guarantee that they will happen. The laws of The Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1973 and its subsequent amendments as well as the laws of Florida are ours. We are forbidden from harassing or feeding dolphins. Thank you for understanding.

Shell Island, an undeveloped barrier island off Florida’s Emerald Coast, is called "Seaside Island". It measures 7 miles east to west. It is composed of graceful sand dunes as well as pine hammocks and shrub forest. Shorebirds and deer can call this inland lake home. Shell Island is protected by the shore, which means that many species of coastal wildlife and endangered species have made their home there.
