90-Minute Dolphin Watch Tour of South Padre Island

Overview

Enjoy a one and a half hour South Padre Island Dolphin Watch aboard the newly renovated Murphy's Law and see Atlantic Bottle-nose Dolphins in their natural habitat. During the tour, listen to the interesting and informative narration on the diverse marine life that lives within the waters surrounding South Padre Island. Keep an eye out for a 'pod', which may consist of 10 to 30 dolphins. The guided tour will also include the southernmost U.S. Coast Guard Station, Boca Chica Beach, the current location of Space X, and the South Padre Island Jetties...entryway to the Brownsville Ship Channel where one of the largest Shrimp Fleet calls home. Then end it with a unique view of a beautiful south Texas sunset right there on the water!

We went out on the boat with the expectation to see Dolphins of course but our captian heard that there was a Whale Shark just outside the jetties in open water. The captian asked everyone if they wanted to try to see the whale shark and was meet with an enthusiastic yes. Needless to say we got way more out of this trip than we expected. The whale shark was amazing and awe inspiring!

Terrible customer service! Purchased dolphin watch tickets in morning (with cash) for afternoon cruise; returned for cruise and outfit had been shut down for the day. At first told that there had been a death in the family, but later learned that cancellation was a result of not selling enough tickets (which is reasonable during “off-season”). But why the lie? And why was no one on site at time of cruise to offer refund? If cancellation is possible, should be prepared to handle refunds on site. Called the next day to inquire about refund and was told to either come pick up refund or give credit card over the phone. We were tourists and had already left the island; did not pay by credit card and not comfortable to give cc over the phone when that wasn’t the original payment method. Asked about having refund mailed and was refused. Absolute worst and unreasonable customer relations! Had heard good things about this dolphin watch cruise, but wouldn’t recommend them after this experience. Also don’t write reviews often, and know to take with a grain of salt, but felt this one was worth the effort.

We had a great time. The crew was very nice to the kids. We brought a 9, 5, 2 years old and a 5 months old and all enjoyed the trip despite the wind and the cold. We saw many dolphins and the sunset was stunning.
