Dolphin Sunset Cruise
Enjoy a 2-hour relaxing and fun-filled sailing cruise & dolphin tour, perfect for couples or families.
ENJOY THE AWE-INSPIRING BEAUTY OF THE DOLPHIN SUNSET CRUISE IN PANAMA CITY BEACH!
Our sunset dolphin tour is a time to enjoy a 2-hour sunset cruise on our exclusive sailing catamaran while exploring the beautiful waters around Shell Island. Perfect for couples or families, the “Island Time” is a 50-foot-long sailing cruise catamaran that’s perfect for Shell Island boat tours.
Located at Lagoon Pontoons Marina, right down the road from Capt. Anderson’s Restaurant, we begin our dolphin watching cruise through the calm waters of Grand Lagoon then past the wildlife of St. Andrew’s State Park. We’ll then continue our sailing cruise into the beautiful emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico for sunset sailing if it’s calm enough there. If you are in search of dolphin watching & sunset cruises in Panama City Beach, Florida then this cruise is what you have been looking for!
We’ve specialized in dolphin sails, since 1999.
The dolphins are usually plentiful during our sunset dolphin tours, and we sometimes catch a glimpse of them leaping out of water or see a baby swimming alongside mom. Even our locally-based crew gets excited for those special occasions! If the Gulf is a little rough, our dolphin watching sailing cruise heads through St. Andrews Bay, plentiful with dolphins and brilliant sunsets over the water.
Add an unforgettable experience to your vacation. Our dolphin sunset cruise is ideal for couples, families, or anyone seeking adventure. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want to relax and enjoy the views, our sunset cruises offer something for everyone. With a combination of stunning sunsets, playful dolphins, and the gentle sway of the “Island Time” catamaran, this is more than a boat ride – it’s an experience you’ll treasure forever. For nature enthusiasts, our tour offers a chance to see local wildlife in their natural habitat, from dolphins to sea birds and more. Don’t forget to bring your camera! The photo opportunities are endless as the sun sets over the emerald-green waters of Panama City Beach.
We have a stocked bar with beer and wine, and all of our snacks and non-alcoholic drinks are just $2.00. We’re known for our famous “Rum Punch,” tropical music and entertainment including fun games and dancing after the sun go down.
