ENJOY THE AWE-INSPIRING BEAUTY OF THE DOLPHIN SUNSET CRUISE IN PANAMA CITY BEACH!
Come sail along with us and enjoy some of our best local musicians performing live to the backdrop of the setting sun during our sunset cruise. First we will cruise around and sightsee through the calm waters of Grand Lagoon. We’ll then see if the beautiful emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico are calm enough for a leisurely sail to look for dolphins and watch the sunset. Then dancing and games on the way back!
Enjoy a 2-hour sailing catamaran sunset cruise exploring the beautiful waters around Shell Island. This cruise is perfect for a couples date night, locals, or a group of friends looking for a sunset cruise! The “Island Time” is a 50-foot long sailing cruise catamaran that’s wide for a stable ride and 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.
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.
**Online bookings only available up to 2 hours prior to departure time.
Awesome crew on a lovely boat. Definitely worth every penny. They make sure to spot dolphins and explain the surroundings. Music, drinks and a light breeze made this a sunset to remember.
We had a most amazing time! The staff, Luke & Carter and 2 others, really made a point of getting to know all the travelers. We spotted 6 dolphins, and they stayed with us for 15 minutes. It was a great photo opportunity.
We had great fun. We saw lots of dolphins, including a couple leaping very high in the large wake of the Sea Screamer boat. We docked for an hour at Shell Island at a spot that was a three-minute walk to the Gulf, allowing us to explore both. The catamaran was clean and comfortable. In addition to the large deck, the catamaran has many shaded seats. It also has a fun slide off the back, which we enjoyed while docked. No regrets at all. Well worth it.
