Dolphin and Nature Sunset Cruise from Orange Beach

Dolphin and Nature Sunset Cruise from Orange Beach

Overview

Enjoy a beautiful sunset while enjoying one of our signature cocktails! There’s no better way to end the day! Join us aboard our two-hour Orange Beach, AL dolphin and nature cruise. This cruise combines all the features of the dolphin cruise with extra floating time through the hidden creeks of the back bays. We spend the first hour locating and observing our local dolphin pod, and we spend the second hour in the estuaries.
Our knowledgeable tour guide and captain point out the local flora and fauna. You may see osprey and their nests, herons, bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, and maybe even an alligator or two. The Explorer allows us to get as close as safely possible to the banks and the local marine and wildlife. Because the boat only needs 16 to 18 inches of water underneath, we can sneak into creeks and swamps where few other boats can go, providing you with a truly unique and memorable experience.

What To Expect

Orange Beach

Two hulls provide stability for a smooth ride without leaning to one side. Come enjoy a two-hour sail at sunset aboard the Cetacean, a 52-foot Hawaiian catamaran. With the wind in our sails, the Cetacean skims along the waters of Orange Beach, Alabama and Perdido Key, Florida. While out sailing, you’ll see coastal wildlife and marine life all around. Take in the sights and sounds as pelicans and cormorants dive into the water; bald eagles, egrets, sea gulls, herons and osprey fly nearby; schools of bait fish surround the sailboat; and our resident pod of dolphins plays in our bow wake. Our knowledgeable tour guide and captain point out the local flora and fauna. You may see osprey and their nests, herons, bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, and maybe even an alligator or two. The Explorer allows us to get as close as safely possible to the banks and the local marine and wildlife.

The captain and crew were wonderful. We were able to see a lot of dolphins and the sunset was spectacular. Would definitely recommend.

This was our first ever dolphin cruise and it was very nice. The weather was overcast so we didn’t get to see a beautiful sunset but we saw many dolphins. We even saw a dolphin, chasing the boat on his back, showing us his belly! It was definitely a fun tour!

Thank you for the review! Sometimes, the weather tries to put a damper on things, but we don't let it stop us from having a blast!

This was such a great experience! After doing a little bit of research, the reviews for this place really sold us on this particular tour. Captain Will and his crew are so informative, friendly and fun. We came to Orange Beach on our honeymoon and had no set itinerary, just planning on going where the days took us. That led us to taking a sunset dolphin cruise, which was one of the highlights of our trip. It is great for all age groups, and was very affordable. We had some great photo opportunities, and seriously saw so many dolphins!! We are already planning on coming back here for our anniversary and will definitely make this part of our an annual trip.
