Great crew ! Very knowledgeable.  The  boat is awesome ! Very big boat.So lots of room. A bar and bathrooms.  What more do you need. Very well kept and clean. Upper deck is also a plus. Do this ! A great tour of the bay and sound. We'll worth it. I recommend  the evening tour. Sunset was epic!

Don't choose another!

The crew was wonderful. The bar service was great. The views were spectacular. It was the perfect activity for adults and children to just pause and enjoy the moment. Would recommend over and over and over!

Great Experience

We made the Premier Sunset Dolphin Cruise one of our activities, celebrating our 40 year anniversary and we are so glad we did. It was a peaceful, relaxing time that was enjoyed by both, my wife and myself. 
Whatever the occasion, it is worth the time.

40 years Anniversary Celebration

Absolutely amazing, plenty of tour time watching dolphins with a bit of knowledge being past, upper area was perfect.

Dolphins and Sunshine

On Wednesday I spent almost $250 to take my family on a Pensacola sunset dolphin cruise.  The parking at Bounce was terrible and the crazy unmarked tunnel to the boat as well.  Finally we were out still in clear site of the dock. Saw a handful of dolphins. The crew then turned the boat back because of a storm way in the distance .  The storm went around no rain.  They offered nothing toward a future  cruise!  I already left a review on your website no  reply!

Disappointed

First off the information for how to board was out of date. Instructions said to enter through a restaurant that went out of business. A new restaurant is in its place but this lead to a lot of confusion. After asking for clarification at the bar we were still unsure if we were in the right place. Three more groups arrived who were also unsure if they were in the  right location. Next challenge was the dock that was used as the pick up point. This was a high dock above the water with no railing. This was slightly terrifying for myself and my older sister because she is a little unsteady on her feet. One other older woman also found this a challenge and had difficulty getting to the boat. While I realize this may not be an issue for some, it should be made clear on the website as we would not have booked this trip if we had known about the dock.. Also, while I know there is never a guarantee of seeing dolphins there were not a lot sited during this trip. The boat had trouble with its starboard engine during the trip so we had a slow return back to the dock and I believe this may have also limited the ability for the captain to look for dolphins. Captain did a great job with docking the boat given the starboard engine limitations. The kid doing the announcements was impossible to understand due to a poor sound system. Over the years I have booked at least a dozen dolpin trips and this one was the most disappointing of any so far. .

Below Average

Loved the boat, the scenes,  and the care given by the crew. Excellent experience!

Wonderful evening

Worth every penny, great sunset, full moon, and a flyover by the Blues. Can't get any better.

Retired Navy

Great crew. Took a minute to find a dolphin pods but it was worth it. We would do it again. Great value

How I spent my summer vacation

They did exactly what they said they were going to do. They delivered multiple dolphins and separate sets actually at different times the experience was great for my first time out on the Water out seeing dolphins

Thanks for the Experience

So much fun & seen several dolphins! Loved this your and guides!

Happy Hour

This was the best event we had on the beach! Capt. Kenzie was amazing. Her knowledge and quick, calm decisions was on spot! We were caught in between 2 storm waves coming in while out on the water and she was so calm, cool, collective and just on top of the situation immediately. I felt very comfortable with her and it was the best time that my husband and I had on our entire vacation.

Capt. Kenzie AMAZING!!!

Charlie and McKenzie were great! Lots of fun and dolphins

It was a fun experience! The guy driving the boat (I can’t remember his name) was very knowledgeable! He was able to talk to other people on different boats to see where dolphins were! I definitely recommend going on this boat experience. It was a blast.

I loved that our guide worked with others already in the water to find dolphins. We were able to see several, and our guide happily tracked them down. I know seeing dolphins isn’t a guarantee, but I felt satisfied knowing how hard our guide worked.

Happy Passenger

Captain Paul was great and the first boat to find Dolphin Pods for us and other boats.  He also delivered very informative information about both dolphins,  but also the history of the many sights.  

Great trip!

Very knowledgeable and humorous host! He made it a great experience! Knew just where the dolphins were~!

We had a lot of fun and got to see dolphins and sting rays

It's great

We had an amazing time on our 3 hour boat ride. Paul was there waiting for us to arrive and was a great host throughout the trip. We were able to see differernt landmarks, dolphins, sting rays and jellyfish, which was amazing.  We were pleased with the drinks included but we did bring additional snacks and drinks in our own cooler. This was our first trip to Pensacola but we are planning another trip soon and will bring more friends to experience this boat ride. Only negative, the beach was not the best, seaweed and jelly fish were too much.

Fun coordinator

We did not see many Dolphins but the boat ride was worth it. The captain and crew were very nice and informative. Our first boat ride on the ocean, price was reasonable too. Was able to bring our own cooler for $10, well worth it!

Dolphin

It was a really wonderful experience.  My only regret is that i didn’t arrive early enough for an outside seat.  Next time i think i will do the smaller or private with 10-15.  The captain was amazing and would definitely request him as well.   Loved it
