Great dolphin tour! - Captain Wyatt & his first mate Amber were great! They interacted with the group, gave us some history about the island & educated everyone on the ocean life. We got to see some dolphins and the fireworks were really nice. Definitely worth doing while visiting Hilton Head Island!

The Highlight of Our Vacation - We took the sunset dolphin tour with fireworks cruise on July 4th. Captain Kate and Chaos Coordinator Audra were amazing. Audra gave us a lot of great low country history and information about the area and its inhabitants. We saw tons of dolphins and topped off the evening with a beautiful fireworks display. This is a must do activity while in Hilton Head!!

Dolphins and fireworks - The fireworks were not set off on time, so our boat trip was extended which was great! May want to bring a jacket if traveling at night, ocean wind was amazing but cooler. Captain Mary took good care of us and played fun music!

Great experience - A huge rainstorm came out of nowhere and Captain Mary forged through and found some dolphins as soon as the rain started to let up. She shared her knowledge with us and navigated us to some great photo opportunities and great view of the fireworks.

Cute adventure, quiet fireworks so great for the littles. - Alot of stand still to watch, so it gets hot. Bring hand fan. Took infant so it was extra hot. Far back enough from fireworks that its quiet and great for the kids.
