Dolphin fun - We had a beautiful day. The representatives (guide and driver) were really into finding dolphins for us to see. They really succeeded. The dolphins we saw came alongside the boat, went under the boat, and approached as a family.
Fun time

Pleasant Evening - We had a very pleasant experience. They boarded on time and were incredibly inviting and personable. Makayla was very friendly and always available for questions or to help. My only complaint was that because the PA system was out they had to give any announcements by talking/yelling and while that was understandable, there was also very loud music playing so we couldn't really hear much of what was being said. We "teamed" up with another boat and we did see dolphins in the wake of both of them. I thought that was pretty ingenious. We also saw dolphins feeding. I appreciated that they decided to stay far enough away from them so as to not disturb their activity. It was easy to embark/disembark as well. Good value and an enjoyable evening.

Let down… - Overall, the cruise was subpar. We seen a few dolphins, but my family of five was stuck in the cabin the whole time. Everyone else flooded to the top of the ship so my kids had to watch from inside of the hot cabin and through windows. No PA system. So no music unless you were outside and on top of the boat. The host stayed outside as well so we were all just stuck inside, no knowing what was going on. This was a let down… we will not be returning customers on the cruise unfortunately. A waste of $130.
