  • Wonderful Mothers Day Gift! Beautiful weather, crew was awsome and played really good music. My 5yr old son enjoyed the trip. Saw lots of dolphins and a sea turtle, fed the birds and enjoyed the day. Lots of great facts and information provided. Booked the 1130am trip..so the weather was great not to hot.

    Nice boat, saw many dolphins! Glass "bottom" may be a bit exaggerated, should be advertised as is, glass viewing windows. Overall, a great a afternoon!

  • 2-hr dolphin cruise

    We had an absolutely wonderful time on this cruise. The crew was phenomenal - friendly, inviting, encouraging and knowledgeable. They were so good natured that often times I thought they were just another passenger until they were offering to help or providing interesting information. I'm actually from this area, and they informed me of some very interesting things that I'd never known before. Also, because of their insight, we chose a restaurant for lunch as well as some other activities. We'll definitely be returning, and we've already recommended you're sight and that particular cruising company.

    I really enjoyed it. It was relaxing..kinda windy so we stayed inside the boat most of the time. Didnt get to see much because of that. Other than that, really enjoyed it.

  • dolphin watch and destin history boat cruise

    the waves were to rough to venture out too far - so stayed close, saw a few dolphins (maybe 4) but realize due to rough conditions did not see more, however, there was NO destin history only loud music, would have liked to hear about the harbor docks hx, destin hx, only heard about several restaurants, and a couple of homes belonging to famous people

    Hi Deborah,

    Thank you for the feedback as we welcome and appreciate it. Unfortunately, the day you went we had a replacement captain as our main one was taking a personal day. We apologize that we did not deliver a great experience as we typically do. We would like to invite you back on next time you're in town as our guest. Please contact customer care for more info.
