Fun and Interesting Galveston Ride - Our Capitan Dan was very knowledgeable about the Galveston sites we passed while on the boat. We saw lots of dolphins. He was good with children giving them a seat at the wheel with him.

Dolphins aplenty! - It was amazing in that within the first 5 min Captian Adam has us watching plentiful dolphins! He was very knowledgeable and had lots of Galveston bay history to share. From the dolphins we saw to the kids driving the boat, I would definitely be back with this company! Thanks Captain Adam!

I loved this dolphin tour! - I had a fantastic time on my dolphin tour! Our captain was named Ben and he was funny, knowledgeable, and a great captain. He even let my little boy drive the boat for a bit. We saw plenty of dolphins and some interesting boats. I highly recommend Baywatch Dolphin Tours!

The best experience ever! - The part that stood out for me on this excursion was the captain's mix of humor and professionalism. The ride felt safe, smooth, and well-run, even while he kept the energy high and the joke rolling.
