It was great! Captain Kenny was phenomenal

Great

Staff was amazing and made sure everyone felt safe!

We had a great day on the dolphin tour-even though we didn’t see any dolphins!  The crew was very friendly and helpful-careful about our safety and gave us clear preparation for a very wet ride. The seas were rough and we had a roller coaster ride out to the ocean and back and enjoyed it all. Next time-and there will be a next time because if you don’t see any dolphins they send you free tickets-we’ll bring towels in water- proof bags and wear bathing suits.

What an adventure!

We had a wonderful time on the Sea Thunder.  Our tour guide was informative and funny. We were able to bring our own cooler with refreshments and snacks though we could have bought for very minimal their refreshments. We were able to see dolphins and more dolphins. We also saw many other species like birds including pelicans. We bought a picture that was wonderfully taken and mounted on a beautiful wood plaque. We will definitely come back with family on our return to SC.

The experience was amazing. Both Captain Kenny and Katie were awesome! Music was playing, air guitars and singing! The entire crew was so friendly and spirited. We saw so many dolphins! It was such a memorable experience. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Experience!

What an amazing time we had with Captains Katie and Ken. The amount of knowledge given and the amazing chance to hold different wildlife was just a ocean a lifetime chance. Thank u so much for the experience!

Wonderful adventure

My husband and I took the Dolphin Cruise.  It was fantastic!  Both Captains were so accommodating, Informative and very very nice.  She checked on us twice during the cruise.  We had a great time and enjoyed seeing the dolphins.   WARNING..do not sit in the front of the ship if you don't want to get very wet! LOL.  We were warned, but it was fun.  Can't wait to do it again!  This cruise is a must do!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE

From the friendly staff, to seeing the dolphins,  the information on the tour, it was all excellent.  A must do.
