Highly Recommend - Great Cruise. The Captain and Co-Captain were very friendly and accommodating. I like that this boat is a speed boat. We saw quite a bit of dolphins!

Highly Recommend! - EXCELLENT family experience. We only got about 20 minutes into our first ride because of the weather so they let us rebook for the next day at no cost. The owner/host/captain are fun, conversational and knowledgeable. We saw tons of dolphins. And, even if we hadn’t seen dolphins, the fast boat ride was a ton of fun. We considered going a third time during the week 🙂 Highly recommended by our family!

Incredible Experience with Very Friendly Staff - My family and I had a wonderful time on this excursion. Our kids loved seeing the dolphins and driving the boat. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. We had an issue with parking and they went out of their way to call us to make sure we were still coming. We would highly recommend this company!

Totally Worth It! - This was awesome! We brought our two kids (6 & 8) and we all loved the boat ride and seeing the dolphins. There were so many! The captains even spotted a few sharks, but all we saw were shadows because the sharks didn’t come up out of the water like the dolphins. We saw some really neat sights (other cool boats, Crab Island, etc.) and the kids got to drive the boat at the end. Overall a great experience and seemed really affordable by my expectations. I wouldn’t recommend it for physically unstable people though (the boat rocked with the waves while watching the dolphins and bumped a little bit while moving, nothing too uncomfortable for us, but my grandparents would have fallen over).
