Shell Island Snorkel and Dolphin Catamaran Cruise with Island Time

Overview

The 3-Hr Shell Island Snorkel & Dolphin Cruise aboard the Island Time Sailing Catamaran is a great way to have fun in the sun and enjoy the best of what Panama City Beach has to offer! Cruise over to Shell Island where you and the whole family can snorkel to find exciting shells and sea life, swim up to the island to explore or paddle board around the boat. After about an hour you will depart the island to head out to the Gulf for sightseeing and dolphin watching and sailing! The cruise ends with contests and dancing. We offer 2 different catamarans for this trip. They are very similar, but have a few differences. The "Island Time" is equipped with a water slide and no over the water nets. While the "Island Time II" has over the water nets located in the front of the boat and no water slide. (Please note: This tour departs from Panama City Beach, FL, which is about 3 hours East of Pensacola.)

Beautiful water. Captain great. Great music. Girl bartender not friendly or professional … she stated paddle board had a hole in it and said it couldn’t be used when my daughter asked for it. 2minutes later she pumped it up and literally gave it to someone else right after she denied use to my daughter. When my daughter said something to her she was very rude and told my daughter to go tell the other patrons to get off board so she could use it. Could of been handled better. Was happy with everything and everyone else but her. Snorkeling was great.

Thank you Connie for taking the time to leave us your feedback. I am glad that you enjoyed the water, captain and music. Sorry to hear that about the bartenders service. That does not sound anything like our crew's customer service. However, I will make sure to further investigate this situation. Hope to have you again in the near future!!

I booked a snorkeling excursion for myself and my almost 12 year old son and we had a really nice time. The captain and crew were fun, friendly and worked hard to make it a great experience for everyone. We did see a few bottle-nosed dolphins from the boat, however; we were expecting to be snorkeling in deeper waters and to see a larger selection of marine life while snorkeling than we did. The shoreline of Shell Island had a ton of seashells and I enjoyed spending some time collecting a few.

We had a wonderful afternoon! All of the crew was very friendly and they were excellent hosts! We saw multiple pods of dolphins in the bay and had a great time snorkeling and paddle boarding around Shell Island. We'll definitely go out with the Island Time crew again!
