We were disappointed. The sails were never put up on our trip. We saw two dolphins from afar. That was it. Can’t recommend this trip.

We enjoyed their trip from start to finish! It was relaxing with perfect weather. We had one other couple with us! The captain and crew member were very nice and helpful pointing out when we did see some dolphins!

This trip was so worth it!! We saw so many dolphins and the boat was really nice! The staff was great and I loved that the group size stays small so there’s plenty of room for everyone.

This was a nice and pleasant experience. The weather was good and being on the catamaran was a neat experience. I will say that the event is billed as an opportunity to see dolphins and manatees and it may be over sold in that regard. They made no attempts to see manatees for some reason. We did see some dolphins out in the distance and got a little closer to them. But you could barely see them and it was nothing that I could not have seen from another boat or even from shore. So that part was lame. But I did enjoy just getting out there on a sail boat for a few hours.

Relaxing ride, plenty of room to move around freely, and we saw dolphins! 😀

I was greeted by the captain with a very cheerful and enthusiastic hello. That eased any negative thought I had as this was my first catamaran experience. The boat was beautiful, clean, and did I mention beautiful??? After our brief safety meeting we were allowed to move along the edge to get seated in the front of the boat. This was the best part as when we went over waves you get a bit wet. On such a warm day, it was very much welcomed. While we only saw dolphins off in the distance, the experience was still a 10/10 for me.

This was a friendly, and fun sail down the Halifax River with Captain Ken. The boat was clean and "Shipshape and Bristol fashion." We saw a lot of dolphins. It's always interesting meeting the other guests and talking to them. A beautiful sail. We got back to port just before the rain even though it was supposed to rain all day. A great experience.

Had a very enjoyable sail on the Halifax River. Definitely recommend if you want to have a relaxing afternoon. The dolphins were wonderful to see.

It was a great activity to do even on a chilly and windy day. They have a warm enclosed area and they offered blankets for those who wanted to sit outside in the wind. We saw a sea turtle on the doc and a few dolphins on the river. Great boat adventure would recommend to anyone. I was even on crutches and no issues. The sailing team was friendly and fun!!
