Amazing dolphin tour - Amazing breathtaking tour! Book it! We travelled from FL and booked this excursion with ease. Our tour was scheduled for 4pm and our captain was there early to check us in. It was just my husband and I and one other couple so a very one on one type of experience. We saw many dolphins and the sunset was so beautiful. I highly recommend this experience.

The sunset that almost wasn't. - Such a fun and informative experience. With only 6 guests , the captain was able to engage with all of us in a captivating way. I appreciated that when it did not seem like a good sunset was to be had on the trip and we were heading back -- almost into the harbor-- he turned the boat to head back out for a most gorgeous sunset.
