Every charter starts with the yacht, the crew, and the Gulf. What you add to that is entirely up to you.
Most charters include a Shell Island stop and dolphin spotting along the way. From the intracoastal near PCB to the open Gulf and the 30A coastline, your captain tailors the route to your group.
The Emerald Coast is home to a thriving resident bottlenose dolphin population. Our captains know the corridors where they run. Encounters happen on the vast majority of our charters — and they never get old.
Wildlife is wild — sightings are frequent but never guaranteed.
A pristine barrier island you can only reach by boat. Crystal-clear turquoise water, white sand, and some of the best snorkeling on the Gulf Coast. Snorkel gear and fins are included — just step off the swim platform and in.
The calm, protected waters between PCB and the barrier islands — the best corridor for dolphin spotting and wildlife watching year-round
Deeper emerald water, Shell Island access, snorkeling reefs, and the wide-open horizon that makes a day on the Azimut genuinely unforgettable

Your captain designs the day around you — every route, every stop, every moment on your terms.
