Itinerary

  1. 1

    Our adventure begins with a scenic cruise along the jetties of St. Andrews State Park, one of the best places in Panama City Beach to spot bottlenose dolphins in their natural habitat. These waters are home to resident dolphin pods, and we frequently see them swimming, feeding, and playing near the boat.nnOur experienced captains know where dolphins are most often found and will safely guide you to provide you with an up-close viewing experience while always respecting the animals and their environment. Every trip is unique, but it's not uncommon to watch dolphins surf the boat's wake, leap through the water, or swim just a few feet away. Be sure to have your camera readyu2014this is often the highlight of the tour and a memory you'll never forget.

Take a short walk across the white sand to the Gulf side, where you can search for unique seashells, watch tiny ghost crabs and fish along the shoreline, or simply enjoy the emerald waters and peaceful scenery. If you're in luck, The Ice Cream Boat may be anchored nearby, offering the perfect sweet treat before we continue our adventure.
