So glad we tried this out! We ended up back for a second rental on our trip. Such a great experience. Great price, nice and clean boat, helpful and kind staff. Easy in and out. We saw so much, even baby dolphins playing!
Laurel
Salty Pontoons is the best! We were immediately greeted upon arrival in the parking lot, the lady checking people in even offered to bring us a cart to put all of our stuff in to make it easier to get it to the pontoon! Getting to the pontoon, the gentleman was very helpful with explaining everything about the pontoon, where everything was at in the bay, how to get there, where to dock/drop anchor, etc. Very helpful! Highly recommend and will book another pontoon with them next year!
Chad
We had the best time on the boat. I couldn’t recommend Salty Pontoons enough. Booking was easy and customer service was 5 star! I didn’t get the 2 gentleman’s names that helped us but they helped unload the car onto a cart, they helped load our stuff onto the boat and again off of the boat. The sea life was something to see, shell island is a must! My family will be back next year!

Explore St. Andrews Bay & Shell Island by Pontoon Boat
Cruise the beautiful waters of St. Andrews Bay and discover the natural beauty of Shell Island with a pontoon boat rental from Salty Pontoons. Our location provides easy access to calm bay waters, scenic shorelines, and popular swimming and sightseeing areas. Shell Island is known for its crystal-clear water, white sand beaches, and frequent dolphin sightings, making it one of the top boating destinations in Panama City Beach. Whether you’re looking to relax, swim, fish, or explore, renting a pontoon boat is one of the best ways to experience St. Andrews Bay and Shell Island at your own pace.
Great experience from start to finish. Made the reservation over the phone, the lady was very nice and helpful. Checking in and getting the boat was a breeze. We got a 12 passenger 90 horse pontoon from 9-5 for our family of 10. Fit us all comfortably. They provided a speaker to use. A guy gave us a quick 5 min info on how to use the boat, very friendly. Out on the water was great kids caught fish, saw dozens of dolphins(some up close) and sting rays, stopped at a couple Islands to jump out and swim. So worth the money for an all day family adventure with very friendly and helpful staff.
