We wanted to see dolphins in the wild - not in captivity. The tour company listed they have a 98% success rate at seeing dolphins.

How did you get to the activity location?

It was a short drive from our rental in Maravilla Beach (about 20 min).

What was your experience with the activity’s staff?

The captain (Roy, I think) was entertaining and safety-conscious.

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

We got up so close and we’re able to see two separate dolphin pods in their natural habitat. They swam right up to the boat, so I was able to get some cool pictures! Crab Island was unremarkable... really more of a side note. The dolphins, of course, were the highlight! I noticed Kelsie (a crewmate) looking through binoculars to spot the dolphins. Roy let us know which side of the ship to look each time we came near the dolphins. Very helpful!
