Quoted from my adult daughter: The boat trip was everything I was hoping for and then some. - The Private Sunset Dolphin Tour was awesome and we were able to spot many dolphins. The captain was very knowledgeable about the area and we enjoyed hearing information about the Hilton Head area and the dolphins.

Fun Times on Our Sunset Dolphin Cruise - We had a wonderful time. Our guide Captain Mark was very informative and a pleasure to talk to as well. We saw lots of dolphins and beautiful scenery. Sunset was mostly obscured by the clouds but did not detract from the evening cruise at all. I highly recommend!

Dolphin tour - We were able to go out on the zodiac boat rather than the Cat Creek boat because we were the only people scheduled and our guide suggested “the red boat “. He made an excellent choice as we had an amazing experience! Ryan gave us the safety information and then headed us out to explore. We got so close to dolphins you could pet them. We had an awesome history lesson of the founding of the island and much of the history about it- including the filming of Forrest Gump and celebrities living around the island. Ryan was a great host! He was patient, knowledgeable and understood our comfort level in driving. I would highly recommend this company and Ryan as your guide! It’s well worth it!

Fun experience - Our guide was informative and we got to see plenty of dolphins. It was a good way to see different parts of the island. My daughter is almost 5 and she had a blast! Worth the money to have the boat to yourselves.
