Our 3-hour Private Dolphin & Snorkel Tour offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation around the beautiful waters of Shell Island. We typically begin by cruising the Gulf in search of wild dolphins in their natural habitat. When conditions are safe and appropriate, we may have the opportunity to enjoy an in-water dolphin experience. After dolphin viewing, we head into the bay to look for sea turtles before making our way to a premier snorkeling location. Snorkel spots vary based on conditions and wildlife activity; often they include areas around Shell Island. If visiting Shell Island is a must-do during your trip, simply let your captain know—we’re happy to customize the experience to make it happen.
We can accommodate up to 18 people six passengers per vessel each vessel is 436 if you don't have six passengers that's perfectly okay it is still a private tour for just you and your family. If you have more than six we will take multiple vessels and they will stay together the entire time we will snorkel together enjoy Shell Island together and be in the same area while swimming with dolphins.

Our main goal is to try and get you and your family the opportunity for an encounter with dolphins. Or number 1 goal is safety! Swimming with dolphins is amazing and we have a lot of great experiences on our tours. However we will only put people in with dolphins given a safe opportunity.
