Marcus was extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the area. He also went above and beyond what we expected on the trip. In addition to seeing dolphins he took us around a bunch of local spots that we never would have know about or see otherwise. We were extremely with the trip and when we come back we will definitely be booking with him again!

If you are worried about seeing dolphins, it took about 45 minutes to find them but we did see dolphins and they came right up to the boat. After the first encounter we also found another pod shortly after.

Excellent experience

We had a great time on the dolphin cruise. Marcus was well informed about the history of the area and made the trip enjoyable. Good family fun.

So Much Fun

Our captain Marcus provided excellent service. My kids enjoyed not only the ride and dolphin watching but also the stories about the pelican island and pirate cove. Thank you! We will definitely use your services again!

Great experience!

We were in town for my nephew’s 3rd birthday & decided VERY last minute to book a dolphin tour excursion. Found these guys through a simple Google search & couldn’t be happier with the service from start to end. Not only were they the cheapest option, but we also got a private boat & very friendly/knowledgeable captain. Saw several dolphins very upclose, some even jumping along nearby boats! This last minute idea was a huge highlight of the trip & was made even better by the friendliness & efficiency of the staff. The only caution I would advise is for those with walking issues. 3 of us had some sort of walking ailment (we had no issues walking, but accompanied pain.) The dock is behind a resort & is a little bit of a trek. I’d say around 5 mins. Not bad & so serene, but still should be mentioned for those concerned. Other than that, it was AMAZING.  Thanks for the memories!

Lifelong Memories Made

We had such a great time with Captain Glen. It was our kids' first time on a boat, and he did a wonderful job explaining the boat and things out on the water. He found a pod of dolphins and expertly kept the boat rotated to minimize wave wobble. We had a relaxing walk along Shell Island. We had the whole beach to ourselves. We will absolutely return for a trip with Captain Glen again!

Amazing experience!

This was my first time booking a trip through tripshock so we weren’t sure what to expect. We had a great time on a private dolphin tour where we were lucky enough to see pods of dolphins, a couple of sea turtles and Shell Island, which was fantastic!! Our tour guide, Glen, was just what our group needed and was able to read the room quite well! He was engaging and informative while also allowing us to “explore” on our own pace.

Great trip!
