5.00We had captain Forest for our cruise and he did a great job at making sure everyone was having a good time the WHOLE time-he was super informative on Fort Myers facts and history which kept the experience even more entertaining. Along with that, lots of dolphins were spotted during the whole cruise and we made friends with other guests on the boat as well. Overall a perfect way to end the day in Fort Myers and would recommend especially for a family activity!

5.00Captain Jack (Forrest) was wonderful. Knowledgeable and fun Only complaint is, in the description of the cruise it stated that included in cruise would be the Sanibel lighthouse and we didn’t go there. And but nothing to do with the cruise but 2 of the 3 restrooms were locked. Lots of people coming off 2 boats with 1 toilet available. That wasn’t fun.
I was wonderful, highly recommend this cruise.

5.00The trip was very fun, the guide was very interactive and knowledgable about the bay. The best part was he could tell the guests were very interested in seeing dolphins and adjusted his cruise, to the best of his abilities, to allow that experience. Do keep in mind it gets a bit chilly so dress accordingly or be sure to bring something to cover up with.
Highly recommend!!
