We then make our way into the Gulf of Mexico where we begin riding the waves and start searching for Dolphins and other wildlife. We cruise the coastline and see the sights until we encounter Dolphins when we will slow down to get a better view and take pictures.

Captain and first mate we're very good in pointing out dolphins and a few sharks. We enjoyed the music as we enjoyed the sun on our face and the breeze in our hair!

The best dolphin boat tour you can go on in Destin!! The crew is super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. If you have a question about the dolphins they will answer right back! Second year in a row taking this sunset tour and don’t regret it for a second. You get your moneys worth and more.

Beautiful scenery and seeing dolphins swimming along the side! I wish the boat went faster but we had elderlies on the boat which I can understand!
