Lots of dolphins! - So glad we chose this tour. We spotted a dolphin shortly after leaving shore and the captain backtracked so we could see it again. The captain ensured we had a great time by following where the dolphins were rather than a set course. We highly recommend this tour!

Vacation vibes: Perfect girls' trip outing! - The sunset dolphin tour was so fun and the perfect last night activity for our girls' trip! Our captain KP and first mate Jax were great. The free group photo-op at sunset was an unexpected and appreciated surprise. The tour location was easy to find. Only thing I would say is make shoe choice wisely as some water did get on the boat floor due to some larger waves.

The Dolphin Tour that never happened - We didnt get to experience.. there were clear directions on the location for River Street.. when I called the location was different than what’s listed online.. we would’ve been late.. the person I spoke originally said we could redo the following day at 1pm.. and then called back to say Sunday 1pm was not going out.. I was looking forward to my kids having this experience., I was told I would receive a call about refund but now it’s Monday.. see back home and I haven’t received a call.
