    Sunset from the Island Time catamaran

    My daughter and I absolutely loved our sunset dolphin cruise. It was so beautiful, and we saw so many dolphins (even without drinking a lot of the infamous rum punch)! We went early June, and we were able to see so many pods with new baby dolphins... so beautiful and precious! The sunset was beautiful, and it was such a joyful, fun vibe. Lots of kids and families. The crew was so warm, friendly, and fun. I would definitely recommend this cruise.

    Our family and friends had a great sail on spring break. We saw dolphins, snorkeled, searched for shells on Shell Island. Highly recommend!

    We had the most Amazing time today on the snorkel and dolphin tour! Our Captain Cristo, deckhand Avery and bartender Sarah were absolutely Amazing. They made the tour fun, informative and very enjoyable!! Would 1000 percent recommend going on one of their tours. Thank you for such a memorable time and we will definitely be back again!!

    Our shell haul!

    We had the best time on the snorkel/dolphin cruise. We saw a school of Tarpon fish and Carter busted out his pole to try and snag one. We collected a ton of great shells from the trip. If you visit Panama Beach make sure you book this trip!

    If I i could give these guys 10 stars - I would!!! What a fun and professional team of nice guys ! Captain was awesome- very professional and we felt safe yet had so much fun !!! They were awesome to point out the dolphin. At sunset - Carter and Avery madd sure everyone had photos with the sunset. As we were coming in - we got to see deer on the side of the beach and Captain Heath pulled in close to allow us to see and take great photos. TAKE THIS CRUISE - it was amazing !!! Book it online and don't worry just get there at 4:30- check in is across from the dock bar which also great !

    Great experience all around! Perfect way to see a PCB sunset from the water. Hospitality was impeccable.

    Such an amazing time. Captain Clay and his first mates Emma and Emma were awesome. Saw a ton of dolphins, and really enjoyed the cruise to our snorkeling/swimming location. Would 100% recommend for anyone traveling to the Panama City area!

    Island Time Sailing made our welcome sail one of the most memorable parts of our entire wedding week. We booked the catamaran privately for a large group (nearly 50 people), and the crew handled everything--from boarding to waivers to bartending--with patience, professionalism, and great energy. One of our favorite moments was when the captain remembered our upcoming beach wedding and sailed past during our ceremony a few days later, creating some of the most beautiful sunset photos. Truly above and beyond.

    We had such a great time! Definitely the highlight of our trip! Christo and the two Emma's made the cruise so much fun!!

    Perfect shell island

    A perfect time with a great crew. Captain clay, Audra and Emma were completely fun and helpful. Got to see lots of dolphins within 8 feet of boat and great snorkeling in crystal clear water. Loved it. It is our 26th anniversary and we are so glad we did this!

    Let's go....

    We enjoyed this cruise. For the price, you get a fantastic ride out and spot the dolphins up close, and then, you get out to snorkel the clear waters. It made fantastic use of the time, and we were not bored or felt stuck on a boat. Short and sweet. Great time for adults and kids. The crew were funny and did a great job keeping us entertained. Definitely must do activity.

    What an amazing trip! Very chill and relaxed, the captain deck, hand and bartender were all super great people. Snacks and drinks, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic are available to purchase below deck. This boat has restroom facilities available as well. The sunset cruise was an experience I would recommend to anyone.

    Dolphins and shell island snorkeling. Took the 3 hour trip and was pretty cool! Captain Heath, Sarah and don't recall the other girls name but they were awesome. Got to see some dolphins. Drinks on the boat was great even though it was at 7:30am. Heath says you on vacation and drinking before noon makes you a pirate. Snorkeling was ok not a lot to see but the island was super cool. Sand so white and water was perfect and clear. I would suggest it just schedule in advance so you can maybe go out late morning or early afternoon.

    Once the sun hits the water, it's gone in minutes. Such a beautiful sight.

    See all

    We went on a snorkel trip and lived it so much that we booked a sunset cruise. Loved our time with Carter and Sarah!!

    My dad booked us a Deep Sea Fishing trip with Capt. Andersons in Panama City. We hadn't been in…read moreclose to 30 years so I was excited. We opted for the 10 Hour Trip (2 hours out, ~6 hours of fishing, 2 hours back). Quick edit: we only had ~26 people fishing and I'm thankful for that! It was coooooold the morning of and it had stormed the previous two days. Thankfully we were prepared. I'd recommend bringing a book bag or light sack with: sunscreen, hat, glasses, long sleeve shirt/hoodie, Gatorade, rain jacket and change of shirt. They do provide sunscreen, medicine, food, snacks and drinks onboard for a cost (see my menu photos). It was ROUGH going out, thanks to the storms leaving. We hit 5-6 foot waves and it was bumpy on some parts. I almost lost my stomach and went to the back of the boat for fresh hair for the last 45 minutes going out. There were a few people who got really sick. Make sure you clean your system out before getting on the boat (ie: get your out) because the two bathrooms are tiny. We were assigned fishing spots (dad got us back of the boat) and had buckets of squid ready to go. Capt would hit his horn, letting you know it was time to drop the line in. You'd pretty much either get something right away or nothing. It didn't take long to get the hang of it: drop to the bottom, reel twice up, keep the line tight, jerk the rod when you feel a nibble, reel up and check rod pressure to ensure you got something. It's a very quick process! One thing you'll notice is the different arm muscles you'll use. I caught the only Grouper for this trip and it certainly tired my wrist out. I literally got a Charlie horse in my wrist and toe after hauling that sucker onboard. It wasn't Red Snapper season (June 1st) but my dad caught 3 huge Red Snappers. We got to keep 10 B-Liners each, and also caught some white snapper. Overall, we hit our limit and caught extra for others on the boat. The helpers did an awesome job! The ride coming back in was pleasant and we sat on top of the boat. It was a fun experience! Make sure to tip the Captain and your helper! Great crew and they got the job done! There is also a fish cleaning place at the dock that'll fillet the fish for you at $.80/lb.

    5 hr fishing trip. Took about an hour and a half to get out to sea and back. Total fishing time…read morewas about 2 hours. Had some decent bites, couple of triggerfish, red snapper, a lot of beeliners, and even an amberjack. Recommend for first time fishers! For more experienced fishermen I suggest a longer trip.
