capt zach was amazing. we had the best time with him.Should us soooo many cool dolphins and amazing star fish when we snorkeled . he went above and beyond to make this a special adventure. I highly recommend him.
We had a great time on our dolphin cruise with Zach! Such a down to earth person and easy to talk to. Highly recommend booking with him! We def will again.
Had the best time with our family and Capt. Zach! He showed the kids all kinds of cool stuff! Best part of our trip!
Had a great 3 hour adventure. Saw some cool living things under the sea and everyone enjoyed snorkeling. Shell island was very nice and the walk to the gulf was cool to see. Zach is very good and gets out there and swims around to find stuff. Highly recommend!!
We were looking for something fun to do, so we started looking up boat charters. We had some people in the group that wanted to see wildlife, some that wanted to beach, and some just looking to have some beers. With luck of the draw we found Captain Zach’s Adventures and let me just say, we’re sooo thankful that we did. He met all of our needs and then some!! Very clean, very courteous and very accommodating - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! - Thank You For A Great Time, We Will Be Doing This Again!!
Yesterday was the best day! We decided to shop local and take a private tour, to accommodate our group of 6 people, with Captain Zach, into the bay. We saw dolphins 🐬, sea turtles 🐢, and Shell Island. He is local and knows where to go and be mindful of nature!

I would give 10 stars if I could!

We had an amazing time here! We saw so many dolphins and we also got to see some turtles as well. We got to do some snorkeling at Shell Island and saw some sea urchins, star fish, and even had dolphins swim in front of us chasing fish! We will definitely be booking with them again when we come back this was. Thank you so much for everything!!!

If you’re looking for an unforgettable family adventure in Panama, I can’t recommend Captain Zach enough! Our family of six had the most incredible time on the water. We saw so many dolphins up close, along with a variety of fascinating sea life—sea urchins, starfish, sand dollars, conchs, and more. Captain Zach didn’t just show us the sights—he also took the time to teach us about the marine life, making it fun and educational for everyone. It was truly a magical experience that we would do again and again!

We had such a great time on the dolphin boat tour! From the moment we boarded, captain Zach was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about marine life. The boat was clean and comfortable, and the ride was extremely smooth and we had plenty of space to move around and take in the ocean views.
The unforgettable experience was so amazing we saw a huge pod of dolphins at least 10 and then he took us to see turtles which was a first for us! We got such amazing pictures.
Shell island is so beautiful the water is a Caribbean blue and so fun to walk around and see all the marine life! Thank you Captain Zach for an unforgettable experience!

Great guy , very friendly and informative. We did dolphin tour last year and this year my mom took her friends on it. From that trip Zack taught her how to find coral and ohh man am I so thankful for your teaching Captain Zack. From that she taught me and I found quite a bit, now if only I could find sharks teeth like you do.
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Captain Zach Adventures! From the moment we stepped on the boat, Captain Zach made us feel welcome and comfortable. He was incredibly personable, especially with our little kids, making sure they were engaged and having fun the entire time.One of the highlights was getting to see so many dolphins up close—it was truly magical! Captain Zach’s knowledge of the area and wildlife made the experience even more special. He took us to Shell Island, which was absolutely beautiful. The crystal-clear water and pristine beaches made for an unforgettable adventure.If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly boat tour, Captain Zach Adventures is the way to go! We highly recommend and can’t wait to book again!
Captain Zack was amazing!!! We had such a good time looking for dolphins and shark teeth. Captain Zack was very knowledgeable about the area and sea life. We learned a lot! Boating to the private island on the Gulf was a plus!!! He was so kind to allow us to take our two dogs that travel with us everywhere on the private tour. Peaceful, Adventurous, and just good fun!
Awesome had a great time
Capt. Zach was amazing. We saw several dolphins and Shell Island was awesome. Would highly recommend any time of year.
Great experience! Zach is very knowledgeable and very safe. The tour was perfect. Couldn't ask for better!
What an amazing time! We were debating between the 2 or 3 hour dolphin trip and so happy we decided on doing 3 hours. Capt Zach was a great guide! We saw tons of dolphins, a sea urchin, sand dollar, and jellyfish. Our kids had a blast, learning about marine life and even getting to touch it. Highly recommend!
Totally worth the two hours. Captain Zach was knowledgeable and we saw dolphins, turtles and canon ball jellyfish. Definitely a must!
Best experience ever! Captain Zach made sure we got to see every sea creature we wanted to see. He went above and beyond to make this a great experience for me and my family. He was very helpful and respectful. 10/10 recommend
Captain Zach was great! He was very helpful in pointing out a ton of sea life!
It was such an amazing experience , capt Zack was super friendly and the ride was full of fun and useful information . He didn’t rush us at all , we had great time at an awesome spot he took us on shell island . Our family had a dog , one special needs kid and one elderly adult but capt Zack made our ride hassle free and helped out a lot . Would definitely recommend it . 5 stars!!
Enjoyed the experience! One of the prettiest sunsets we have ever seen. Zach was awesome and super friendly. He did a great job at sharing wildlife and telling us about the area. Thanks Zach!
Zach was very friendly, very nice , we truly had a blast . We look forward to joining him again next year !
Such a wonderful experience.
Capt Zach is friendly, knowledgeable, funny, and very personable. 5⭐️

We did the 2 hour trip today, and it was great. Saw dolphins, sea turtles, and other sea life. Capt. Zach was great. Will definitely use him again if we come back to PCB!
Today we had a tour with Capt Zach and it was a blast! we saw sooooo many dolphins and some sea turtles! We will definitely be back when we visit PCB.
We had the most amazing experience with Capt. Zach! Our original booking with a travel agent somehow messed up and ended up being the day after we booked, we called the number and Capt. Zach came and ensured we would have our ride on that day! We saw multiple dolphins and turtles while on the ride. This experience was a 10/10 and we will definitely be using him for another trip! Thank you Capt. Zach for ensuring memories for the little ones!
This was an awesome activity. I loved that the group was small (there were only 4 of us) and so we received individualized attention. We saw dolphins, a sea turtle, terns, and pelicans. Capt Zach was knowledgeable about everything. His boatsmanship was great. He kept the boat steady even with the big swells. The stop at Shell Island was fascinating and beautiful. I highly recommend Capt Zach's Adventures.
Went out with Zach February 2024 for the 2-hour tour. Highly recommend this personable and knowledgeable Captain. We toured, we learned about the area, anchored near to Shell Island and found some cool stuff on the beach walk. Snorkeled (brr) and had a great time. Paused to watch an eagle soaring overhead and saw lots of water birds too. Hope to get out with Zach again before we leave the area.
We had an absolute blast on a half day charter with Capt. Zach! We did not want the excursion to end. It was a top memory from our week in Florida and we’ll definitely go out with Capt. Zach again if we’re ever back in the area. Highly recommend and worth the splurge! Thank you for an incredible time, Zach!
guys, if you're hesitant about booking a tour DONT BE! We had the pleasure of having Christian as our tour guide and when I tell you that the two hours spent out on the ocean were the best two hours of our ENTIRE trip I'm not kidding. He took us to see the sea turtles and the dolphins! I even got to swim with them🥹🥹 We had the luxury of being able to see stingrays gliding through the water and even seen a shark😮😮 I will definitely 10000% reccomend this company to any of my friends and family visiting the area, and I definitely recommend it to you guys as well!
Capt Zach was amazing! He was very knowledgeable on sealife and the area! He totally let us customize our tour so we could see what we wanted! One of the best days ever! Can’t wait to go again!!
We had a wonderful experience with Capt Zach. He was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly loves his job! We saw dolphins, a sea turtle and enjoyed a slice of paradise on Shell Island. Thank you, Capt Zach. We look forward to coming back on our next trip to Mexico Beach! The Nelsons
We shared a fabulous 2 hours with Zach this week. The boat was immaculate, Zach knowledgable and engaging. We found dolphins and spend about 20 minutes with them, respecting them while giving us a great view. We would recommend Zack’s adventures to anyone, our adventure was outstanding.
Had a great time. Very knowledgeable about the water and animals.
what a great trip! Capt. Zack was super friendly and knowledgeable. It was well worth the reasonable fee he charges. we were so happy to get to meet Kevin as we were going back into the dock!
Captin Zach was the best! He gave a great tour, and had lots of fun hitting the waves! Best part was when we docked and got to go in the water! 10 out of 10 experience! �
Awesome experience today with Capt Zach and Flippin Awesome Adventures. Capt Chris and Capt Zach collaborated to make our family vacation beyond incredible... dolphins, turtles, Shell island, a crab, snorkeling, sea urchin, sand dollars, and more dolphins. Thank you!
Amazing tour we were not able to go into the gulf due to rain but we got to see dolphins and captain Zach spent some extra time to make sure we got to go on shell island, at a secluded spot. Captain Zach is so down to earth and so much better than those big charter boats with a lot people on it. Thanks Captain Zach!
Friendly, knowledgeable, professional.... I can keep going with the positive adjectives!! Our family booked with Zach a few weeks ago and highly recommend him!
We had so much fun, Capt. Zach is the bomb and knew exactly where to take us to see dolphins, then a cool place we could snorkel. Before we headed back to the marina he even took us across a trail on shell island to a beautiful private beach, I had never seen a beach so clean!!! His boat was very tidy and he provided a cooler and ice for us to bring our drinks on.
Sunset boating to Shell Island and dolphin sightings. Captain Zach is friendly and informative about the area. The boat is new in mid 2022 and is spotless. Highly recommended!
We had an absolute blast with Captain Zach, he goes above and beyond to make the trip fun and exciting, He’s also Pet Friendly, are Puppy had a blast also. Thanks brother can’t wait till next time!
Absolutely recommend Capt. Zach Adventures. For starters it was sooo personalized, private not crowded…this allowed us more “quality“ time!!!!Not to mention individualized attention. Beautiful island Ohhhh and that turquoise water ….and the snorkeling 🤿 and did I mention the wild dolphins 🐬 🐬🐬
He has cold drinks available and he is such a good host ….you can definitely see he loves his job …as he gave us an explanation of the place , the marine wild life …how Shell 🐚 Island 🏝 got its name !!!!
Funny thing is while at the island I saw the bigger touristy catamaran I was trying to book sooo crowded and I thought 💭 this was perfect 👍🏼 for us.

Absolutely a MUST when visiting the Gulf! We had the most extraordinary time on the water, learning all about the waters, and adventuring in the water with our fabulous captain! We got to see dolphins, stingray, scooting crabs and hold shells until we were sun soaked🥰 and we couldn’t be more grateful to Captain Zach giving us the best memory ever! We can’t wait to see him again next year!
Such an awesome experience! Capt Zach was so friendly, was like hanging out with an actual friend! I highly recommend taking one of his tours. He had lots of interesting information about the area. Will definitely book another tour in the future and tell everyone I know that comes here to book a tour!!

Great experience! Friendly. Laid back. Saw dolphins, rays, a sea turtle. The kids had a blast.
Amazing time with Capt Zach. The smaller, more intimate setting over the bigger cruises makes this 100% worth it.
What a wonderful morning we had. Captain Zach was fantastic. He was more like an old friend or family. He actually got off the boat with us and helped my GREAT grandsons have an adventurous time exploring the waters of the gulf. He was very knowledgeable and the BEST tour guide I have ever had and I have had many outstanding tours and tour guides. I recommend him highly and we plan to return next year. My 5 year old GREAT grandson said “this has been the best day of my life”-
“can we do this again”! Thank you Captain Zach for an amazing tour, it was AMAZING!!!!
“can we do this again”! Thank you Captain Zach for an amazing tour, it was AMAZING!!!!
My family and I had the BEST time with Captain Zach and his tours. Amazing experience and HIGHLY recommend him. This adventure will be on our to-do list each year!!
Thanks, Zach!
Thanks, Zach!
Both Capt. Zach and his wife were accommodating and kind. Our group had the boat to ourselves which made it more personalized. Capt. Zach was attentive, stopping every time we saw a dolphin even giving us the history of the area (which is fascinating). I have already started recommending them and have permanently put on my must do list every time I am in the area. Your kindness made us not only comfortable but made for a wonderful outing. Can't wait to come back. Thank You!
Amazing trip! Capt. Zach was wonderful. Took time to answer my sons questions and was very knowledgeable about the trip. Highly recommend!! Will definitely book with him again!
We had an awesome time with Capt. Zach, did the 4 hr tour, went snorkeling, saw dolphins and a sea turtle! Really nice guy. Highly recommended 👌
10 out of 10 Recomendation!! We had the best time in PCB with zachs adventures!!
Zach is a great captain. We had a blast. We will be back for sure.
By far one of the best places to visit in Florida!! The nest thing we’ve done since we have been here. We will be back before we leave!!! ❤️❤️
Captain Zach was so friendly, funny, and accommodating. He went out of his way to show us things we were interested in and gave us some interesting history lessons along the way. My friends and I would 100% recommend Capt Zach to anyone looking for an adventure and exploring St. Andrews. We are definitely planning on coming back next time we are in Panama City. Thank you Captain Zach!!
