Great time! - Super great! We only saw a few dolphins, but the crew was awesome and the boat ride was a lot of fun. Our oldest has a peanut allergy and they were so nice about making sure all the snacks with nuts were put away.

Absolutely worth every penny! - This was such a nice experience in St Augustine, so many dolphins! The boat didn’t rock, so don’t worry about getting sea sick, it was the smoothest and most fun boat ride I’ve been on in St Augustine yet! They allow you to help pull up the main sail, and they even take your picture before the boat ride with your party and offer a $20 print out with a cute frame included!

Perfect Dolphin-Watching Cruise - What a perfect 90 minute afternoon catamaran cruise! Beautiful, spacious boat with lots of amenities, including free sodas, wine, beer and snacks :-) Captain Howard was great and his crew were skilled, friendly and knowledgeable about the local marine life. We saw lots of dolphins, even in the harbor before our sail, and many dolphin pods of moms and babies in the bay :-) Highly recommend!

Expectations & Experience - Increased boat activity keeps dolphins away so afternoon not the best time to go. The cruise did not get close enough to the historic fort, downtown area or bridge of lions to see it, viewing from a distance only. Staff were friendly and attentive.

Boring - I was expecting a narrated tour and to see dolphins. It was nothing more than a boat ride with drinks and snacks.
