Great afternoon on the water! - Went with a group of 6 for this great 90 minute boat ride and we all really enjoyed it! Capt Bob was super friendly and a great guide! He was able to give us a nice fun (little bouncy, but we liked that!) ride down to Harbour Town and we definitely spotted quite a few dolphins along the way. It is an open boat with basically no shade so keep that in mind when booking! Sunscreen and water are a must! And don’t forget to tip your captain! Thanks again Capt Bob!

Seeing several dolphins was of course the highlight, especially 2 that came just a few feet from our boat.
