5.00Had a wonderful time! We had great weather, beautiful sunset, and got to see some dolphins. Captain was super friendly. Totally worth it.
Definitely recommend!

5.00I didn't think the cost was a deterrent, but I didn't want to waste a precious sunset on a mediocre experience. For me and my 14 year old daughter, the cost was less than a therapy session and even more beneficial! Ha. The sunset was lovely, the Dolphins were a treat, but the boat ride alone was my favorite. I do love the waves at the shoreline, but it's been a few years since I've been on the water, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. They do play some music on the boat and provide simple drinks. Be sure to use the bathroom somewhere just before you get there. You will have the option of something better than a porta potty right near the very spaces parking lot; it was clean and functional. You can wear sandals or sneakers, no concerns about ruining shoes or anything getting wet. This is a very easy experience. Our hosts were pleasant but focused on the job, not trying to constantly entertain the guests. If I could get my whole family down, I would insist we all go. Have some cash on hand to leave a much deserved tip.
Great time for a great value!

5.00Captains Deacon and Dan were awesome! Lots of dolphins and they even got them to follow the boat and jump out of the water for us! Sunset was beautiful and the ride was so relaxing. Would 100% go out with them again!
