Dennis was our captain and he was very knowledgable about dolphins. He answered every question we had! We really enjoyed our time with him and would take another trip with him again. We would recommend this experience to anyone!

Your comments are very much appreciated. It was a pleasure to have you on board and to be able to introduce you to these wonderful marine mammals.

My husband and I went on the "Swim with the Dolphin" adventure last Saturday. What an experience! It was the best time I've ever had in the water, bar none. The dolphin are wild in the open Gulf and so friendly and curious that they swim right up near you. Please see my photos. This was an unbelievable encounter that I will remember for the rest of my life. If you go to Panama City, don't miss out on this trip! The staff was great and Captain Jerrard was the best.

It was an amazing experience. I can't believe how close we got to the dolphins. Who knew dolphins were so friendly. The staff was excellent and they showed a lot of compassion for the guests and wildlife. We will be telling our friends.
