Well worth the money! - While it was an extremely hot day the ride was great. Our Captain was fabulous with all sorts of very interesting information and cute stories for the children keeping their attention. He was very considerate of each passenger! He kept each of us involved and definitely entertained. We were hesitant because of the weather and honestly weren't truly optimistic that we would actually see dolphins. We were wrong!

Dolphins found us - We had a great time! Even our littlest 2 1/2 year old loved it - “go fast! YeeHaw!” We saw dolphins and learned a bit about the waters, oysters and birds around Hilton Head Island. Captain Andy was knowledgeable and knew all the places the dolphins like to visit. I was very impressed.
