Overview

This 3-hour catamaran cruise in Panama City Beach offers snorkeling, paddle boarding, dolphin watching, and sailing aboard the Island Time boat. The trip begins with a cruise to Shell Island where guests can snorkel to find shells and sea life, swim ashore to explore the island, or paddle board around the boat. After about an hour at Shell Island, the catamaran heads into the Gulf of Mexico for dolphin watching and sightseeing. The cruise concludes with onboard contests and dancing. Two catamarans are used: "Island Time" features a water slide but no overwater nets, while "Island Time II" has overwater nets at the front of the boat and no slide. The tour departs from Panama City Beach, Florida.
