After looking at several options we chose this charter just the right size for our family and were thrilled with the results! We had several calm encounters watching the dolphins, a good deal of time with two different groups cruising and jumping in our wake right behind the boat, and still had time for some sightseeing in the bay and marina!

Matt was the perfect captain!! He took us right to where the dolphins were playing and swimming. It was such a cool experience. Matt is super knowledgeable about the area and took us on a great tour of luxury homes and yachts! Definitely so the private tour with Matt!!

He put us with dolphins right away let my kids be kids on the boat. Knowledgeable about the surrounding area. When I come back to orange beach I'm calling Back Bay.

Capt. Matt was great. He went above and beyond during the tour. Multiple pods of dolphins and he was very knowledgeable about the animals and area.

Matt was awesome. He got us right up close to the dolphins and then took us on a tour of the bay. 5 star booking!

Matt was so friendly and knowledgeable! We saw lots of dolphins and even a baby. I’ve done other tours before and this was by far the best! Highly recommend!

Our family went on a sunset dolphin cruise and had such an amazing time. Matt was very knowledgeable and worked to get us the best show of the dolphins. Our kids had the best time watching the dolphins get right next to us and watching them jump. We will definitely be repeat customers if we are ever back in the area.

Met Matt at the marina. Went out searching for dolphins. Matt ended up putting us on top of a group of at least 100 dolphins. Our group enjoyed it so much. Would definitely do it again.

Running with the dolphins with my son was a great experience.

Everyone in the family was happy! Gets my vote for the best part of our trip. Thanks!

Captain Matt was very knowledgeable about the area, and extremely educated about marine life. He was so kind to our elderly parents and gave us all a great time. We will definitely book with him again when we go back to the area!!

Captain was amazing! Very knowledgeable about the area. My family will definitely be booking again when we come back.

Captain Matt was the best. Knowledgeable, flexible, and even played AC/DC for my kids. He’s a true master of his craft. Would recommend!

The tour was great! We really wanted to see dolphins and he did just that for us! He also went out of his way to go find the sharks nearby and give us that awesome experience too! Highly recommend!

This was the absolute best dolphin experience I have ever had. Captain Matt was very informative and fulfilled his promise of seeing dolphins. Also, the private dolphin cruise was sooo worth every penny. If you don’t want to be on a crowded boat and don’t have a huge group, I would for sure recommend Captain Matt and his private dolphin cruise. Thank you Captain Matt!!!

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!

My partner, his father, and our daughter (6) and son (22 months) had soooo much fun!!! The tour guide was so entertaining and we had such a great experience. We will definitely book back bay charters again when we are in the area. 10/10 recommend!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a great time with Matthew on our private dolphin tour. Very knowledgeable and very personable! We can't wait for our next trip and our next excursion with Matthew!!!

We had a great trip with Captain Matt! He knows plenty of interesting facts about the area & about the bottlenose dolphins we saw. Great experience that we'll be repeating next year.

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.

Our captain, Matt, was very knowledgeable and punctual. He took us right to the dolphins and we were able to see them up close and personal. The tour was so worth it!

I brought my two boys on vacation and didn’t want to deal with a large crowd and letting them see dolphins. I looked up private tours but the price was crazy.. until I found Matt! We had the best time and were able to see multiple different dolphins and even a baby!
