I’m glad we decided to live this experience with this company, they helped me a lot by rearranging our trip since our GPS took us to the wrong location, all the team was so kind and made us feel welcome, we absolutely do it again, we had so much fun. Thanks to the whole team.

Best family experience

Bañana boat ride

Such a scam for what we paid I didn’t realize it was just with a WaveRunner off the shore and literally like five minute ride. My kids didn’t even get wet. It was that bad.

Banana boat ride

The captain and crew were very nice and helpful.  We loved seeing the dolphins and feeding the birds

Fun dolphin cruise

The trip was literally 5 minutes! All the fast are very unfriendly I was getting in and the guy literally said hurry up guys like dude it’s slippery wet and of course i dnt have great knees I noticed a customer after us she was also having a hard time getting on and nobody helped her and they  seemed annoyed! Honestly it’s not worth it it’s cheap yes but also cheap customer service!

Too short bad attitude

We're grateful that the staff accommodated our tardiness, due to getting lost, and fit us in for our ride. The ride was a blast but the time approaching a location to accelerate enough for a fun ride is too long.

Vacationers Ride

This is such a fun experience. I wish it could have lasted longer. My 3, 11, and 13 year Olds  all really enjoyed it and wanted to go again. The staff was extremely friendly and they also seen dolphins so took us so we could all see them.

Extremely fun

Everything was very nice.. th weather was perfect we got a Chance to see the dolphins and took great pictures

Excellent

So much fun! We loved the banana boat ride out to the boat!

Amazing

My daughter talked us into this and it was amazing!!!  Loved it!!  Too bad the pictures I paid for didn’t turn out very good.  Most were too dark to see our faces

Enjoyed but

My two granddaughters and I went parasailing together. It was their first time. One was scared but I assured her it would be fun! They absolutely loved it. They also loved the banana boat ride. Can’t wait to come back again! The crew was so helpful getting my handicapped husband on the boat as a spectator. Great memories for all of us!

Fun ride! The location is nice for us staying at Kiva, but you are not on the parasail for 30 min. Our group left the shore, banana boat ride out, parasailed, had the other group parasail, banana boat ride back, gather our stuff, and walk to our car all in 1 hour. This site also has you pay a convenience fee, which I understand, but then on top of that adds a mandatory 15% gratuity once you arrive (be sure to bring your Apple Pay or CC). It's not gratuity or TIP when it's mandatory.

Nice Location, not 30 minutes of Parasailing

Lots of fun, very enjoyable, but whoever was driving the banana boat barely let my husband, the last person on, get seated and grab hold before taking off. I think he was too aggressive and didn’t have a safety first mindset. 

No one discussed any safety/emergency measures with us beforehand.  Otherwise, Lauren in the hut did a great job and was super friendly. The parasail boat captain and his deck hand were great too.

We enjoyed it -our first time-and would do it again.

Lots of fun

Sawyer and Ryder did an amazing job. My family and I had a blast!

it was a fantastic cruise we had a lot of fun, our captain was extremely friendly , knowledgeable, and we got to see many dolphins. the sunset was beautiful, drinks and snacks were available, we learned about the dolphins sleep pattern. very interesting, I got to see my first dolphin on this same boat two years ago . it was very exciting to learn that I was going to get to take this tour again. I will probably be returning again in 2027, if still available. thank for what and all they do.

We had a great time. It was the perfect way to do a cruise and look at dolphins for a family that likes to avoid crowds. Matt was a great tour guide and easy to chat with. We all enjoyed it.

Private dolphin tour

Let’s just say, when two teenage girls willingly put down their phones without being asked, you know you're doing something right—and that alone deserves a 5-star review!
From start to finish, this dolphin boat tour was nothing short of amazing. We saw dolphins, including baby dolphins (!!), gliding playfully alongside the boat. The scenery was stunning, with incredible views of gorgeous waterfront homes and jaw-dropping yachts.

Captain Matt made the trip even more memorable with his deep knowledge of the area. He effortlessly answered all our questions—about the wildlife, the history, and even who owned some of the spectacular homes we passed.
The perfect balance of fun, relaxation, and learning. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and engaging way to explore the coast!
