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.)

We had tons of fun. The crew was amazing and we had a good time snorkeling (though we didn’t find anything other than fish). We had a 2 year old with us and she was not happy being contained and not allowed to walk around and Liv, one of the crew members, came over and took her hand for a quick walk to help calm her. It was super nice. They have a slide off the boat for kids as well and overall it was a great time.

The crew was extremely friendly and fun! We enjoyed the ride on the boat and we saw a lot of dolphins. We were able to get very close to the dolphins and had a great view! The snorkeling was fair, but my two boys had fun with it.

It was a wonderful experience! My 6 year old niece said it was her favorite part of our beach trip! The crew was super friendly! They provided snorkels for everyone and even had available floaties for my 6 yr old and 2 yr old niece! The trip was well paced. We didn’t feel rushed and spend a good amount of time at the island. Overall 10/10!
