Dolphin Adventure - The pilot lengthened the tour to increase the likelihood we would find dolphins. It worked and we were all thrilled at the sight and the number of dolphins.

Baby dolphins. - Staff was very friendly and knew their stuff. You won't be disappointed. Water was pretty choppy but the captain did a great job on navigating it.

Good Jibez Indeed! - A great trip on a comfortable pontoon. They take up to 18 passengers and we found it still to be roomy. The captains found around 8 pods of dolphins during our trip and they made sure we got close enough to enjoy them and they loved playing in the wake. I'm not comfortable on the water but I felt very safe. The captains walked around and made sure we had everything we needed and even offered to take pictures. We will be back next year.

Magical - We went into it knowing there isn't a guarantee that you will see dolphins but we got very active shows. And the crew was great. Honestly one of the highlights of our trip.
