Additional Information

An enjoyable, learning-filled adventure suitable for all family members! We’re experts in creating lasting recollections. 95% of our trips encounter dolphins. Spending more time on the journey enhances your likelihood of witnessing wildlife. Our captain has a knack for coaxing Dolphins to leap in our boat’s wake. However, we can’t guarantee sightings of wild dolphins. We conduct our tours in small to personal group charters. Our location is fantastic.

  • Service animals allowed if you purchase all 6 tickets.

Amazing - Captain Cris made it a great experience. He talked about safety measures and made sure we were comfortable before departing. The boat ride was awesome. We were followed by several dolphins and got to see them so close. The captain also shared interesting facts about the dolphins we did not know. The island we got to was surreal. It’s best for you to book this experience to be able to live it. Overall, I highly recommend this trip!

Great for families - Captain Chris was absolutely a total pro and treated my 7 year old like a princess. We saw plenty of dolphins and the little one found a bunch of beautiful shells on the little island we visited. Thank you for a great time!

Excellent Experience - We had an amazing time, the Hosts were super nice, there were only 6 guests total and the boat was nice. The driver was able to get the Dolphins to follow us behind the boat and play in the waves. That was super amazing. The area to snorkle is beautiful and the sand bar goes out so far. So wether you want to swim, feel lile your walking out into the ocean, find shells, see life under the water or hang out on the beach Its fun for everyone. We were also allowed to bring our own drinks ( beer) which was also enjoyable

Good boat ride - I recommend you book directly with them and not a third party. The owner is very nice and patient for all my questions. The captain and helper were very nice. We saw dolphins, manatee, rays and others.

Highly recommend! Fun, relaxing outing! - Highly recommend! Captain Chris was great and knows the area really well. He was able to get us up close to the dolphins, and they even followed us along for a while! We had a great time at the shelling island and it was just a fun, relaxing afternoon. Our girls, ages 10 and 12, loved it!
