Get ready for an unforgettable journey into the heart of nature, where sightings of the magnificent Atlantic bottlenose dolphins are a year-round spectacle in South Padre Island!
Step aboard and let Isla Tours whisk you away to the dolphins' natural playground. Our one-and-a-half-hour adventure is not just a tour; it's a voyage into the enchanting Laguna Madre, where the waters are teeming with life and excitement. Feel the thrill as these playful dolphins dance around our boat, offering you a rare glimpse into their world.

Great family time! It’s 2.5 hours. A little much for young babies, toddlers with loud music and lights. Great view of fireworks

Great crew members and ambient. Everyone was generous, great music options. It is a medium sized boat but lots of fun for all ages.
