We had a great time and would highly recommend Mike, Chelsea and crew! Snorkeling was a lot of fun. There were a lot of beautiful fish hiding in the rocks on the island's point.

This is definitely the peak of our trip. The experience in itself was amazing. We came for my husbands birthday and he told me it was the best birthday he has ever had. The crew was VERY accommodating and we got well over a 3 hour excursion. Once we made it to shell island my husband and our friends had a blast on the obstacles and I just floated on a paddle board and snorkeled some, but that alone was amazing. We were given a free drink for each of us, and the co captains were bored so they even made us some virgin piná colada’s. The captain was adamant on finding us some dolphins to see, so we floated around for about an hour, although we had no luck finding any, this was probably the best experience I’ve had in Panama. I would definitely recommend to anyone.

I went on this trip to Shell Island one 10/16/25. I paid $65.00, which I thought was a pretty fair price for what it said you get. Upin arrival ( you have to be there 40 min prior to your take off time, I arrived about 25 min before and thank God didn't miss it lol). You leave PROMPTLY at noon (my time slot). The ride over was very nice. They have a mini bar downstairs with select beer, frozen pina colodas and strawberry daiquiri either alcoholic or virgin which were good. I had both, virgin, as I don't drink. They're good size too and are $10 each, but we got 1 free soda or water and half price drinks that day which was awesome! Not sure if they do that every trip or if I just got lucky. When we got to Shell Island, the water bounce floats were pretty cool. They had a huge slide, trampoline, something that looked like Saturn lol that 3 or 4 people stand on and rock, kyacks, 2 green float pads, a slide off the back of the boat (and stairs for us older people lol). The water was disappointing. It had all this green long leaves and stuff in it, all over and the water was not that clear. BUT if you walk off the boat and go to the right where the bounce stuff is, walk down and short but, the water is like the Caribbean!! I was sick of trying to avoid those things in the water, so I got out and went for a walk, and SOOOO glad I did. The water is gorgeous on the opposite side. I don't know why, but who cares, right lol. The kids that went had a blast on the water toys, so it's very kid friendly. You spend about 2 hours on the island, then go dolphin watching, and they were out that day! Jumping and swimming all around us! It was breathtaking, especially for someone like me who's never seen dolphins like that. Mike, the captain, is great! He's very informative, and kind. The 2 girls, his deck hands, were great too! ( I'm so bad with names). Oh, the front of the boat has this area for kids to sit thats soft and woven like a pie top lol. It's safe and keeps them busy on the ride there and back. All in all, I had a great time and the price is reasonable for what you get.
