We had the absolute best time Our Captain Brian was fabulous and our tour Guide Diane was amazing. We will definitely take this tour again in the future with our kids & grandkids. We got to see a ton of Dolphins and Brian was so cool about just slowing down to allow us to capture some of the best photos. My favorite was the Pelicans. There were so many and it was awesome to watch them compete with the dolphins for fish. Great Tour and we highly recommend it for everyone.

It was a beautiful trip, we saw dolphins, manatees, various birds, mangrove forests and Cocoa Island from a completely different side. The ride was very pleasant and the guides very nice and competent.

Captain Rusty and tour guide Pat did a wonderful tour today 1/17. We saw so many dolphins and different birds as well as a few manatees. The tour was just over 2 hrs long and Pat was generous with his knowledge of the Banana River and all the wildlife. I highly recommend!

We are visiting from Maryland. We had a cold rainy start on our trip but that didn’t stop Captain Rusty and Diane from providing us with a great tour. We saw dolphins, manatee and a variety of birds. We were searching for dolphins and then were escorted by a family of them. They stayed around our boat and moved with us. That was pretty neat. Captain Rusty and Diane made our trip feel safe, professional, and a lot of fun!

Highly recommend!! Tour guide Pat and Captain Brian were so incredibly kind, professional and knowledgeable about the local area and wildlife. We were fortunate enough to see many dolphins right up close to the boat! We will definitely be back next time we’re in Cocoa Beach.
