Fun and Relaxing Experience - What a wonderful experience! I don't think we've ever seen so many dolphins in one area. Capt. Kate and Rae Rae were wonderful guides! They shared their knowledge with us and took time to answer all our questions. It was a relaxing and fun adventure that I highly recommend and will do it again when in the area.

Lovely Dolphin ride - Capt Sarah and Wendy lead us on a wonderful cruise. Saw lots of dolphins in the creek. Boat leaves from Palmetto Bay which is very convenient as well - lots of parking.
Also liked that it was a 1 1/2 hours vs 1 hour.

Dolphins will be dolphins... - Dolphins will be dolphins and they’re gonna do what they’re gonna do. Don’t be disappointed if they don’t jump up out of the water, but you will get to see them. It was a great experience!

Beware the larger boat... - Beware the larger boat pictured and advertised may not be the boat you tour on
We were on a very small boat with no shade and in direct hot sun
Therefore we were not able to fully enjoy the experience as a result
The Captain was very good
