We’re located at Pier 21 in front of Harbor House Hotel. Just two blocks from the historic Strand District in downtown Galveston. We have four vessels in our fleet that were built with Dolphin Tours, Burials at Sea, and private events in mind. We are now offering enclosed and heated tours, with a 360° view for the ideal dolphin watching experience.

We’ve done a few dolphin trips in the past but this was excellent. Capt Adam was very informative about the sights but also did his best to let us see dolphins without disrupting them

I love every trip I take! It was especially fun this time because my friend had never been on a dolphin tour. He had a great experience too. We will be back!

We had such a fun time on the dolphin tour! We live in FL and see dolphins from our kayak but we have never seen babies. It was a special sighting. Our captain was great. Very informative and funny. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Captain Adam was very knowledgeable and funny. He made everyone laugh and feel very comfortable. His stories of the dolphins and the surrounding area was very insightful.

This was a completely spur of the moment decision for us and we were so glad we did it! My mom and I had a blast! Captain Adam was amazing! Sharing his knowledge of the port while also keeping his and our eyes peeled for dolphins! It isn’t guaranteed that you see them but this trip for us did not disappoint. We saw loads of them! ❤️
