We had so much fun on the boat. We saw a lot of dolphins jumping and swimming alongside the boat, it was awesome! The crew was fun and they really made our day. Great captain and crew! Captain takes the time to point out and tell you the history of everything you’re seeing. The crew is all smiles and will take a million pics of you if you ask and you get to see the dolphins. Love this tour!! Thank you for the amazing ride!

What a fun and truly special experience for the kids! The crew was fantastic, friendly, funny, and incredibly attentive, making the whole trip feel easy and memorable from start to finish. They made sure we had great chances to spot dolphins and it didn’t take long before we saw them up close, which absolutely thrilled the kids. Beyond the dolphins, we were also lucky enough to see starfish, pufferfish, and even stingrays, which made the experience feel like a real life ocean adventure. Everything felt well organized, safe, and relaxed, and the team clearly loves what they do. This ended up being one of the highlights of our trip and we would absolutely do it again.

My husband and I had a great time on this cruise. The boat has an upper and lower place to sit or stand. You are able to move around the boat. It was cloudy the evening we went, so no beautiful sunset for us. However, we saw many dolphins. At times, they seemed to be racing the boat. They got very close. The captain was also knowledgeable about the dredging of the channel, the Coast Guard station, and the dolphins themselves. Bring a jacket, because it can get chilly.

A wonderful experience for the price point, the crew was very friendly as we're the dolphins. it lasted about an hour and a half, the captain made sure to rotate the boat often so all the people on board could get pictures. there were a lot of people but that didn't bother us.
