Off Season Fun - We had a great experience! The tour guide and captain were awesome, giving us lots of info and getting us close to some dolphins. While it was a bit chilly, the weather was perfect and dolphins were swimming out in the bay. March is great time to go when it’s not busy!

We saw so many dolphins! - Very fun time! Our tour guide was Jonica and she welcomed questions about all that we were seeing. Found several pods of dolphins quickly (one even had a baby with her!) Also got to experience them jumping out of the water which I didn’t know was a rare occurrence. Bathroom and water on board. Covered boat. Bring a jacket and binoculars and prepare for an amazing experience!

Dream come true - Getting to see the dolphins in person has been a life long dream of mine. Jolly Dolphin Cruise made that dream come true and the captain and crew member were very nice and helpful with any questions we had. Definitely will use them again if we are ever back in Pensacola

Awesome - The two gentlemen in charge are awesome! We found dolphins quick and it was a great time. Will come again when we visit. They didn’t overly speak but rather let us enjoy our time and spoke to everyone and made sure everyone was included. Also they have a great sense of humor. 100% recommend these people!!!!

Fantastic! Our guide was knowledgeable and our pilot was skilled! - Our tour was Jan. 2, 2024! It was quite chilly but the sun was shining, a beautiful day! The guide, I believe his name was Frederico, was excellent. His knowledge of the waters and the animals was extensive not to mention other very interesting nuggets of knowledge. An educated, intelligent man! While he pointed out places of interest, led us to be able to see many dolphins, the pilot was skilled in tracking where the dolphins were and steered carefully close to them. They had a respect for the sea life that was evident in their maneuvering the boat and how they spoke of them! We truly enjoyed our trip!
Thank you,
