Great Family Trip! - What a fun afternoon! This was our first trip to Florida and we wanted to make sure our family experienced some great adventures and decided on snorkeling and the dolphin adventure. Captain Mike, Trey and Chase all gave us a great experience - from explaining all about snorkeling, finding a couple of dolphins on the way back and it was such a fun relaxing atmosphere even for those of us who didn’t snorkel. Definitely great for first time snorkeling! Captain Mike spent time with my daughter’s and I just giving us ideas on places to eat and drives to take. Really appreciated all of the crew!

Id do something else next time - Most of it was getting to the location. Hated the snorkeling bit. Watched dolphins for less than 10 min. Wouldn't do it again.
