What makes this experience truly special is that it is a private charter designed entirely around your group. Unlike crowded tours with fixed schedules, this trip offers a relaxed and flexible experience where the day can be tailored to what you enjoy most.
Guests have the opportunity to explore some of the area’s most beautiful natural surroundings, including the pristine waters and beaches of Shell Island. Along the way, it’s common to encounter local dolphins in their natural habitat, creating memorable moments that feel personal and authentic rather than rushed.
The trip also combines several experiences into one outing—dolphin watching, snorkeling, exploring the island, and simply relaxing on the water. You’re not limited to a strict itinerary, which allows you to spend more time doing what you love, whether that’s snorkeling, searching for wildlife, or enjoying the peaceful scenery.
This excursion can be customized to match your group’s preferences, but a typical trip includes several highlights. We generally begin by cruising through the bay while searching for local dolphins in their natural habitat. Guests often have the opportunity to observe these incredible animals swimming and playing alongside the boat. From there, we make our way to Shell Island, a pristine barrier island known for its clear waters, marine life, and beautiful beaches. Here, guests can snorkel in the shallow waters to explore fish, shells, and other coastal wildlife. After snorkeling, you’ll have time to relax and enjoy the surroundings—whether that means swimming, walking along the beach, collecting shells, or simply unwinding on the boat and taking in the scenery. Because this is a private charter, the experience is flexible and can be tailored to your group. Whether you prefer more snorkeling, more dolphin searching, or simply relaxing and enjoying the water, the captain will help create a trip that fits your ideal day on the water.
Turn onto North Lagoon as if you were headed to Captain Anderson's. After the turn you will continue past their parking lot AND past the Lighthouse Marina. We will then be on the right hand side underneath the trees/down a gravel road. There will be signs out front with our company name.
