Reviews
We thoroughly enjoy this catamaran cruise. We've gone multiple times in the past year with various family members. The crew is consistently fun, welcoming, and attentive to our needs.
It was a fantastic time on the water. We encountered dolphins and then went snorkeling in a beautiful cove. The crew was enjoyable and involved. I highly recommend this experience.
The shell island cruise was an experience that I highly recommend to everyone. The crew was fantastic and created a fun atmosphere. We spotted several dolphins during the trip. I got off at shell island to search for shells and while I only found a few, the walk in the water and the scenery were enjoyable. Additionally, I scored a great deal with Trip Advisor rewards, cutting the cost in half. Be sure to add this to your itinerary.
We chose Island Time for a trip to Shell Island during our week in PCB as a family of seven, and it turned out to be the highlight of our vacation. While there weren't as many shells as we had hoped, the island itself was stunning. The crew was fantastic and the boat ride was enjoyable. We spotted many dolphins along the way. I would definitely book with them again.

Emma was incredible. Our captain was very kind and even allowed the kids to take turns driving the boat.
It was an incredible day filled with dolphin watching and snorkeling. Captain Dale enhanced the experience with his extensive knowledge of the area and his expertise in finding the dolphins.

We had a wonderful experience with Island Time. It was our first outing on a catamaran and snorkeling adventure. Captain Clay was entertaining, and The Emmas provided excellent attention. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Shell Island.
This was undoubtedly the highlight of our trip! We joined a Bach excursion, and it was fantastic. Christo, Emma, and Avery made the experience enjoyable and worth every dollar. We loved the music, snorkeling, paddle boarding, dolphins, and the stunning water. I would book this every day if I had the chance!
