Reviews of Orange Beach: Dolphin & Sunset Cruises Aboard the Southern Rose
Dolphin cruise.
I have been on a couple dolphin cruises and they have all been crowded. This cruise was no exception. We only spotted 4-5 dolphin but it is understood there are no guarantees of sightings. We started in the upper deck which the captain said was air conditioned and quickly realized it was either not working or just not keeping up and there was no air flow. Moved to the lower deck which was open and allowed for adequate airflow to help keep you cool. Captain was knowledgeable and pointed out many points of interest with historical background of each point.

It was ok
We have a been out on a few dolphin cruises here and we like going on them as we don't have a boat ourselves at the moment. What I liked: being on the water. What I didn't care for: We wanted to be outside to enjoy the weather but we ended up being in the back left corner of the boat so we could smell the diesel after awhile. Since we didn't want to get stuck inside, we dealt with it. There was a speaker right above us but we could not hear one word from the person speaking, even when we were sitting still trying to see dolphins. That could be greatly improved as no one near us could hear anything either. Not likely to take any friends on this one because we prefer to have more outdoor room and we prefer to be able to hear what is being said.

Mr.
We saw 3 dolphins for about a total of 15 seconds at the start of the tour. We spent the last hour and a half wishing the tour would get over with.

The cruise was lots of fun, and the crew was amazing. The captain was very knowledgeable and kept us entertained with interesting facts about the area, and the dolphins.

Pleasant ride
We didn’t see any dolphins but the ride was good and they offer food. Bathrooms were clean. We will go again.

Great crew, great time
My family enjoyed the sunset dolphin cruise very much. Captain was funny. Crew was friendly and the music was good. Our last dolphin cruise was in South Padre a few years ago over Thanksgiving and was freezing cold. Enjoyed the warm weather and the beauty that Alabama always has to offer. Would recommend to anyone looking to cruise in the Southern Rose. We will likely see you all again someday.
