All employees were great. A heads up no Manatee in cold weather. Would have been nice to know ahead of time. Cold morning make sure you dress for it! Did see lots of birds and a few dolphins.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely amazing experience with the Cocoa Beach Dolphin and Wildlife Tour! From start to finish, the crew was knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the local wildlife. We saw multiple dolphins up close, along with a pair of manatees (unusual because it is January and the water temps are cooler), and different species of fish eating birds feeding👌👍 The host (Diane) and captain (Brian) made sure everyone had a great view while sharing interesting facts along the way. The boat was comfortable, the pace was perfect, and it felt both relaxing and exciting at the same time. This is a must-do if you’re visiting Cocoa Beach, whether it’s your first time or your tenth. Highly recommend for families, couples, or anyone who loves nature and being on the water. We’ll definitely be back! 🐬🌊

What an amazing 2 hour tour. Captain Rich and First Mate Diane were very perfect. They shared so much knowledge and were quick to point out the sightings and made sure everyone got to view and the pictures they wanted. Both added a little comedy to the tour as well. Diane was a doll and took pictures of us. She also had some great recommendations on places to visit. She told us about Black Point Drive and we visited that the next day. During our tour, we saw several dolphins who were putting on a great show, 3 different Manatees, one of which was eating. It was a site to see for sure. So many varieties of birds. This trip is a must do and we will certainly do it again if we are in the area.

The trip was freezing cold but there were blankets for sale! Yeah! Captain Rick and 1st Mate, Diane gave us an awesome tour! We were so fortunate to see dolphins who followed our boat for a long distance and we got to see manatees! The trip was well worth it.

We had Steve and pat. Both were amazing. We got lucky and saw dozens of dolphins and several manatees and bird species. Interacted with the kids and made the experience fantastic for all

This was a great experience going on the Banana River looking for wild life, it ended up being little long but still fun. Thank you!
