A wonderful night in Hilton Head - Captain Dave was a wonderful guide who had a lovely boat to take us on a little family dolphin tour. It was so nice having the private experience and he knew where to go to find the dolphins and was very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife. We saw a lot of dolphins pretty close and it was great. Also the atmosphere was great. Gorgeous weather and a gorgeous sunset. I’d absolutely recommend Dave and his dolphin tour!

Best sunset cruise - Cap’n Dave (from NJ) was the best! Our sunset cruise featured gorgeous views, dolphins, lots of local history and anecdotes. Our crew was half local and half out of state. It was great to see HHI in a totally new way. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Hilton Head Sunset Sail - We enjoyed our 2 hour sunset cruise with Captain Dave. He was great at sharing stories, offering restaurant ideas, and telling us all about Hilton Head Island. We had watched the golf tourney the week before and liked seeing the 18th hole from the water.
