The Joy Of Panama City Dolphin Tours

By Eric Edwards


When people think of a place to visit on their next vacation, quite a few dream of a beach getaway. They long to go to a warm place where the salty ocean air fills their lungs and the blue waters cool them off. This is quite a vacation on its own, but if you really want to go all out, Panama City dolphin tours are available that allow you to interact with dolphins in their natural habitats while making lifelong memories.

There are a couple of ways that the companies that have dolphin tours will do this. There are some where the dolphins are in an ocean pen, so you walk up to the dock and dive into the pen with them. In most cases though, you will board a boat and be taken out to sea, to an area that is full of dolphins. The boat ride is usually fairly short, and you get to see the gorgeous blue and green colors of the water as you travel.

The vessel can seat many people at once, so unless you have a really large family or group, you will likely be sharing the tour with other individuals and families. This does not have to be the case, though. If you prefer for your family or group to be the only ones on board, you can request a private reservation that will cost extra.

The largest boats can take more than a dozen people out at once, sometimes 20 or more. So even if you have a large family or group of people with you, they will likely all fit. If you are a large group, see if there is a discount available. As long as you book all the seats together at the same time, you should qualify is a discount is available.

A tour is a great way for all ages to find something that they will enjoy. Often, families with kids with large age gaps have trouble finding activities everyone likes, but the chance to meet and pet dolphins out in the ocean is irresistible for every age group.

All tour companies only hire experienced people who are knowledgeable about boats and how to stay safe on them. They provide life jackets and will probably insist that younger kids always wear one. You will likely get a crash course in safety, usually during or before the boat ride so when you arrive, you can have fun without any danger.

To get on board, usually all you need is to have your bathing suit and a towel. You will also want some sunscreen, as the sun can be pretty brutal in Florida. Your crew may provide you with water or other drinks, but if not, bring water as well.

The best thing you can do is to call or go online and book your spots as soon as you get the idea. If you are going to be in the area in the summer months, you will be competing with other travelers who may have also booked early. Spring break is also a popular time, so book ahead to guarantee your seats, allowing you to have a fantastic experience your kids will not soon forget.
