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 such an amazing time! We are a family of 6 and have kids ranging from 6-14. All of our kids had a blast! The boat ride is fun (bring a sweatshirt), & we were close to dolphins at different points. Shell Island is beautiful, & it was neat being on a private island. The snorkeling was fun, but it’s mid-March, & the water was soooo cold! My family actually snorkeled next to a pod of dolphins! We highly recommend :)
