The trip is a 3 hour snorkeling/dolphin tour guided by Capt. Ashley Bishop, a former marine mammal trainer. Customers will get to experience dolphins up close and personal and explore parts of our area that are only accessible by boat. We typically spend half the trip exploring Shell Island, a 7 mile long uninhabited island. You can relax on the beach, look for sea shells, snorkel, or any number of activities. Come enjoy a relaxing experience away from the crowded beaches and shopping areas and enjoy a dolphin tour on our 27ft boat the largest and fastest private tour around.

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids to go on the dolphin tour?

A: There’s no strict age limit! Kids of all ages can join the tour. Just keep in mind that young ones might need a bit of supervision while snorkeling. Capt. Ashley and the crew are super friendly and make it fun for everyone, but it helps if the kids are comfortable with the water.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the tour?

A: If the weather doesn’t cooperate, Fintastic Adventures will usually reach out to reschedule or offer a refund. Safety is their priority! Just keep an eye on your emails and be flexible on dates if possible.

Q: What should we wear for the snorkeling part of the tour?

A: Wear a swimsuit for sure! Also, bring a cover-up for when you're on the boat. Water shoes are a good idea if you plan to explore Shell Island since it can be rocky. Don’t forget sunscreen — reef-safe if you can!

Just booked the dolphin tour at Shell Island, any tips?

I’m super excited! Just booked the 3-hour dolphin tour and snorkeling at Shell Island with Capt. Ashley. I’ve heard great things about seeing dolphins up close. Anyone done this before? What should I be prepared for? We’re going next weekend, and I want to make the most of it!

Dolphin Tour Experience - Totally Worth It!

I just got back from the dolphin tour and it was incredible! Capt. Ashley was so knowledgeable and made us feel super comfortable. We saw a ton of dolphins and spent a relaxing time on Shell Island. The snorkeling gear was included and it worked great. Definitely recommend it as a gift for anyone who loves the ocean!
