Bay cruising’ at sun set! - Very fun cruise! We saw lots of dolphins & they were very playful! The sunset was beautiful and the crew took great care of us! Captain Smitty had a fun playlist to entertain us as we cruised around. Fun way to watch the sun set!

Dolphin Cruise at sunset AKA Playing hide and seek with a candy fueled 8 year old - I didnt know the dolphin cruises excited until having a drink off the pier. This was exactly what I needed to put a ribbon on me trip. The captain n crew are fantastic. They were fun, knowledgeable, and kind. Coming to this solo could have been a weird experience but they made everyone feel welcome. The dolphins were a bit active and it seemed like they knew we were looking for them with a game of hide and seek. That's probably the best description of dolphins watching...hide and seek with an 8 year old hopped up on candy and soda. 🐬 Would definitely go again.

Lots of dolphins in the wild! - I’ve been on cruises similar to this one but the difference was just how many dolphins we got to see, and very early in the cruise. It really made for a great time

Fun beautiful and educational - Capt Lynn and crew made this excursion on the Explorer so much fun!! We saw wildlife and learned all about the dolphins and birds along our voyage. The Explorer was intimate but still roomy enough to walk around. The sunset was spectacular! Highly recommend
