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.)

This is an amazing experience, highly recommended this company! The other ones boat may look fancy but this place rocks! The crew works together so well, the captain keeps everyone informed on weather, activities, information about what you may or may not see that day. They also take you way into shell island to see the ocean life bay side and gulf side! Truly an amazing experience thank you for the amazing life long memories for my family and I

We saw a few dolphins, no other sea life. Snorkeling water was brown didn’t find any starfish or sea life which isn’t the company’s fault. Just expected more

Sorry that we did not meet your expectations. Unfortunately, the weather prior to your reservation date was a big contributing factor to the discoloration of the water. We hope you can give us another chance to give you the tour you were expecting!

The excursion was great start to finish. My two daughters ages 31 and 7 both had a blast. I had fun. It seems much longer than 3 hrs. We saw dolphins. If we come back to PCB, we’ll 100% do it again. Do it as early as you can.
