How did you discover this activity?

We searched online for dolphin cruises near our beach house and found TripShock. The reviews and pictures helped us pick a cruise that we loved!

When did you book your tour compared to the departure date?

We booked the morning of our cruise.

Why did you choose this activity?

We knew that the kids would love the boat ride. Plus, the chance to see dolphins and other wildlife made it a no-brainer!

How did you get to the activity location?

We drove about 40 minutes from our rental to get to the cruise, but it was definitely worth it.

What was your experience with the activity’s staff?

The crew was amazing! Seeing dolphins is exciting on its own, but the captain made sure that everyone had a view. He knew each dolphin by their dorsal fin, and even got them to swim and jump in the boat’s wake.

Highlights or memories you and your group will take from the trip?

As we were boarding, we were greeted by the captain, crew, and a beautiful parrot. We all got to meet, hold, and take pictures with Lucy, the dancing parrot, as everyone was boarding. The captain was very knowledgeable and entertaining.

We learned a lot about the dolphins as we searched for them. Once we found them, the captain maneuvered the boat right up to them, so everyone could see. We even got to see a mother and baby dolphin swimming side by side. Then, the captain enticed the dolphins to chase the boat and jump in or wake, what a show!

On the way back in, each of the kids got to meet the captain, steer the boat, and have their pictures made, while everyone else was feeding Cheetos to the seagulls right from our hands! The boat had two levels of open-air seating, an air-conditioned cabin, and a glass-bottom viewing area, and we were welcome to explore all.

Would you recommend this activity to another group like yours? Why or why not?

Definitely, everyone in our group, from age 6 to 70, had a blast! The price was reasonable, and the experience was worth every penny.
