Not just for kids! - It was just us three sisters in our 50’s and the only one without kids on the boat but we had the best time with Jim and Grace on this Shark Boat! We saw lots of dolphins and pretty quickly into the trip, we even got to see a baby dolphin a few weeks old, soo cute! No matter what age you are, you gotta go, it’s the coolest boat on the water! We went on another larger boat in Clearwater a few days later and the experience was not even close.

Amazing!!! - Captain Jim and Grace were awesome! My kids loved the experience and the crew went out of there way to be sure we saw a bunch of dolphins. So cool we got to see dolphins jump out of the water in the waves the boat created!!

Great Experience! - The ride was the perfect way to celebrate a fun, family trip with the grandkids. The water views of the bay were great, and we spent almost an hour seeking dolphins without any success. The captain continued to search as we headed back to the harbor and did not disappoint. We saw 2 dolphins playfully swimming along a channel. Thanks to both the captain and his mate!

Boat looks funny, great tour. - Great tour. Pat and Grace were great with everyone. Great with the little kids on board. Explained a lot and took us over to the dolphins when we saw them. Pat allowed the kittle ones up to the front. Grace walked around and talked to everyone. Great tour and would recommend to all.
