Just a reminder: Our tours are not affected by the rip currents you experience along the beach. You can view & swim with dolphins safely since our captains will keep the boat next to you while you are in the water. Our snorkeling location is on the bay side of Shell Island which is protected from rip currents and also in shallow water.
