Dolphin cruise

Great crew, saw dolphins, only handicapped accessible dolphin cruise i could find and my 88 year old grandma was with us. They were very friendly and helpful. Thank you- Captain David, Justine and I can't remember the bar tenders name but they were all awesome.

Great Experience

The crew on the boat could not have been more friendly and welcoming. They were also very knowledgeable when we asked about trees or wildlife that we saw. Fun boat ride, good music, and a few dolphins finally showed themselves.

Great crew

Beautiful surroundings, kind and knowledgeable crew who go above and beyond.

Great experience

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.

They took us to see the lady of the lake and a few other spots telling us about the area. We got to quite a show with the dolphins and they even followed them some so we could see more. 10/10 absolutely wonderful! And having it just be our family and the captain/crew was perfect!

Amazing

Our captain was amazing! I highly recommend taking a private tour. Able to maneuver to the dolphins way easier than a large tour, and just a more relaxed time.
