Fun trip, and we saw dolphins!!!
My 3 boys and I went on this cruise last week. The guys were very friendly and nice from the start and very knowledgeable. They took us right to where several groups of dolphins were playing and feeding. They stayed out in the water so we could see the dolphins for a lengthy period of time. I think we saw about a dozen or more, a few very close to the boat! After the dolphin viewing, on the way back to dock, they handed out little bags with pirate treasure (beaded necklace, plastic jewels and gold coins) to the kids onboard. It was a great, fun trip and worth the money spent! We will do this again the next time we visit. Thank you, Blue Dolphin Tours!!

It was a great way to enjoy the ocean with 5 kids... Very inexpensive! 1 of my kids got sick and the 1st mate (can't remember his name) was absolutely amazing! He took great care of us with no hesitation! Would definitely recommend this cruise!

Wonderfully experience had the dolphins playing around the front of the boat. Tripshock had booked us at 300 which captain said he did not have a tour but we could gladly come back at 500 and he had one we could go on. They worked hard to find the dolphins and was well worth the effort. Highly recommended.

I took my 79 year old father, his friend and my aunt on this tour. It was fabulous. There is an ac cooled cabin, so they could stay in there until the tour started. We saw plenty of dolphins and because the Blue Dolphin is a pontoon boat, we could go where the other deeper boats couldn't. The Captain was very informative and interactive. We will definitely do this tour again.

Had 6 kids between 4 and 11 with 5 adults. All had a great time. The captain got us up close to dolphins feeding so had great views. The surprise at the end really had the kids excited.
