    <description><![CDATA[ <p>Captain Croix was a marvellous man. He was extremely knowledgeable. We were able to decide what was most important, and dolphin sightings were the preferred option for most of our time."</p><p>A three-hour excursion filled with dolphins and snorkeling, Dolphin and Snorkel Tours offers guests a tour of Shell Island and St. Andrews Bay and plenty of time to snorkel. Private tours are available.</p><p>Shell Island and St. Andrews State Park are the best places to snorkel in Panama City Beach Florida. Panama City Snorkeling Tours provides snorkel gear rental daily in the waters around Shell Island.</p> <p>This is one of Panama City Beach's most popular spots. You can find fish and other marine life in shallow pools. The Gulf's clear waters are perfect for family outings. You can either rent or bring your snorkeling gear from a local tour operator.</p><p>Snorkeling is safe and easy for people of all ages. One of the best things about Shell Island is that the calm shallow water behind the jetty is the perfect place for first-time snorkelers to try the sport.</p><p>Contrasting colors and patterns are what they prefer, so it is a good idea to avoid snorkeling with sharks. Bright colors and patterns can be helpful in an emergency, however. While snorkeling, you might want to avoid jewelry and watches that are shiny.</p> <p>It's not necessary to take snorkeling equipment with you when there are many rental options. Panama City Dive Center, or the Diver's Den offer masks and snorkels as well as fins and other diving equipment.</p><p>Snorkeling in the Jetties A popular spot is the "children’s pool", which is how locals refer the calm, protected waters behind Shell Island Jetty. The protected swimming area at the southern end St. Andrews State Park is another good spot.</p><p>Snorkeling is swimming along the surface of the water with a dive mask, snorkel, and fins. The mask lets you see clearly underwater, while the snorkel is a tube that rises above the water to allow you to breathe with your face in the water. Because you are floating face-down and relaxing with no struggle to breathe, snorkeling is considerably easier than swimming. All snorkel equipment is included in a Shell Island Shuttle snorkel tour.</p> <p>Swimming in the ocean can bring you many surprises. Most likely, alligators are not one of these things. Alligators can tolerate salt water for short periods of time, but they are mostly freshwater animals that live in swampy areas, streams, lakes and rivers.</p><p>You don't have to bring snorkeling gear if you can rent equipment on the beaches. Panama City Dive Center or Diver's Den provide masks, snorkels and fins.</p><p>OFFICIAL SHELL ISLAND SHUTTLE PRICE: $18.95 Adults – $9.95 Children (12 years and under) – Infants Free!</p> <p>These reefs can be accessed by boat or from the shore. Nearshore hardbottom reefs can be found from Key Biscayne north up to Cocoa Beach.</p><p>Our mission is to work with a purpose: By providing Panama City Beach dolphin tours as educational experiences, which allows a greater understanding and appreciation of wildlife. We are an eco-friendly tour and take steps to make sure we do not disturb or harm any wildlife.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <p>Captain Croix was a marvellous man. He was extremely knowledgeable. We were able to decide what was most important, and dolphin sightings were the preferred option for most of our time."</p><p>A three-hour excursion filled with dolphins and snorkeling, Dolphin and Snorkel Tours offers guests a tour of Shell Island and St. Andrews Bay and plenty of time to snorkel. Private tours are available.</p><p>Shell Island and St. Andrews State Park are the best places to snorkel in Panama City Beach Florida. Panama City Snorkeling Tours provides snorkel gear rental daily in the waters around Shell Island.</p> <p>This is one of Panama City Beach's most popular spots. You can find fish and other marine life in shallow pools. The Gulf's clear waters are perfect for family outings. You can either rent or bring your snorkeling gear from a local tour operator.</p><p>Snorkeling is safe and easy for people of all ages. One of the best things about Shell Island is that the calm shallow water behind the jetty is the perfect place for first-time snorkelers to try the sport.</p><p>Contrasting colors and patterns are what they prefer, so it is a good idea to avoid snorkeling with sharks. Bright colors and patterns can be helpful in an emergency, however. While snorkeling, you might want to avoid jewelry and watches that are shiny.</p> <p>It's not necessary to take snorkeling equipment with you when there are many rental options. Panama City Dive Center, or the Diver's Den offer masks and snorkels as well as fins and other diving equipment.</p><p>Snorkeling in the Jetties A popular spot is the "children’s pool", which is how locals refer the calm, protected waters behind Shell Island Jetty. The protected swimming area at the southern end St. Andrews State Park is another good spot.</p><p>Snorkeling is swimming along the surface of the water with a dive mask, snorkel, and fins. The mask lets you see clearly underwater, while the snorkel is a tube that rises above the water to allow you to breathe with your face in the water. Because you are floating face-down and relaxing with no struggle to breathe, snorkeling is considerably easier than swimming. All snorkel equipment is included in a Shell Island Shuttle snorkel tour.</p> <p>Swimming in the ocean can bring you many surprises. Most likely, alligators are not one of these things. Alligators can tolerate salt water for short periods of time, but they are mostly freshwater animals that live in swampy areas, streams, lakes and rivers.</p><p>You don't have to bring snorkeling gear if you can rent equipment on the beaches. Panama City Dive Center or Diver's Den provide masks, snorkels and fins.</p><p>OFFICIAL SHELL ISLAND SHUTTLE PRICE: $18.95 Adults – $9.95 Children (12 years and under) – Infants Free!</p> <p>These reefs can be accessed by boat or from the shore. Nearshore hardbottom reefs can be found from Key Biscayne north up to Cocoa Beach.</p><p>Our mission is to work with a purpose: By providing Panama City Beach dolphin tours as educational experiences, which allows a greater understanding and appreciation of wildlife. We are an eco-friendly tour and take steps to make sure we do not disturb or harm any wildlife. The dolphins will thank you for choosing an eco-tour outfitter who cares, we will too.</p><p>You can book a tour online through our easy calendar, or by calling us.

It was a truly unique experience."</p><p>You'll need to tip between $10-20 depending on how long the tour is. You can usually just tip the person who is saying goodbye at the end of the tour.</p><p>Contact lenses can still be worn but be aware that your contacts may get lost if your face floods. It's just like swimming with your contacts in if this happens. A prescription lens dive mask can be a great alternative to wearing contacts underwater.</p> <p>Based on Viator's booking data and information from Viator over the last 30 days, we believe this experience will sell out through Viator.</p><p>Relax and unwind on the sugar-sand beaches of Shell Island's Gulf Shore. You can relax on the sand or walk along the beach looking for shells. Or you could hike around the island looking for wildlife. You will see why Shell Island is a popular activity in Panama City Beach.

He allowed us to choose what was important. We selected dolphin sightings for most of the time.</p> <p>You will be dropped off at the "children’s pool", as these calm, protected waters behind Shell Island Jetty are known. This is a great spot to learn how to snorkel and also to begin a snorkel safari.</p> <p>Panama City Beach water refers to fresh water that comes from spring-fed bodies of water. It is a water pipe that runs beneath Front Beach Road, and flows towards the Gulf of Mexico. According to the city's website, "These discolored outflows represent a unique aspect in our lake ecosystem."</p><p>Viator has featured this experience, and it has met our quality requirements.

All snorkel equipment is included in a Shell Island Shuttle snorkel tour.</p> <p>The Shuttle will drop you off at the “children’s pool” as the calm, sheltered waters behind the Shell Island Jetty are called.

The protected swimming area at the southern end St. Andrews State Park is another good spot.</p><p>Snorkeling is swimming along the surface of the water with a dive mask, snorkel, and fins. The mask lets you see clearly underwater, while the snorkel is a tube that rises above the water to allow you to breathe with your face in the water. Because you are floating face-down and relaxing with no struggle to breathe, snorkeling is considerably easier than swimming. All snorkel equipment is included in a Shell Island Shuttle snorkel tour.</p> <p>Captain Croix was a marvellous man. He was extremely knowledgeable. We were able to decide what was most important, and dolphin sightings were the preferred option for most of our time."</p><p>A three-hour excursion filled with dolphins and snorkeling, Dolphin and Snorkel Tours offers guests a tour of Shell Island and St. Andrews Bay and plenty of time to snorkel. Private tours are available.</p><p>Shell Island and St. Andrews State Park are the best places to snorkel in Panama City Beach Florida. Panama City Snorkeling Tours provides snorkel gear rental daily in the waters around Shell Island.</p> <p>The Shuttle will drop you off at the “children’s pool” as the calm, sheltered waters behind the Shell Island Jetty are called. This is the perfect spot for beginners to get the feel of snorkeling and it is also a great place to start a snorkel safari.</p><p>You can book a tour online by using our calendar or calling us. Ask about renting an underwater camera for your adventure. You'll cherish the memories.</p><p>You are viewing Virtual Experiences in Panama City Beach. See more Virtual Experiences around the globe. ??</p> <p>This is one of Panama City Beach's most popular spots. You can find fish and other marine life in shallow pools. The Gulf's clear waters are perfect for family outings. You can either rent or bring your snorkeling gear from a local tour operator.</p><p>Snorkeling is safe and easy for people of all ages. One of the best things about Shell Island is that the calm shallow water behind the jetty is the perfect place for first-time snorkelers to try the sport.</p><p>Contrasting colors and patterns are what they prefer, so it is a good idea to avoid snorkeling with sharks. Bright colors and patterns can be helpful in an emergency, however. While snorkeling, you might want to avoid jewelry and watches that are shiny.</p>]]></content:encoded>
