I did this excursion with my 3 sisters. I have done 2 other similar excursions with other providers. This was by far the best one for eco version of the excursion. The young woman( Christine?) was very good. The shell part was not the best one I have been on but it was good enough. I saw more dolphins on this excursion than I have seen on others. The parking was easy. Full disclosure, we went on the first one. It was a cool morning but the sun was out and no clouds. I highly recommend this excursion.

Thanks for the feedback and joining us for a tour. I had a great time on the tour with you and your sisters, finding that huge whelk and then the kids found one even bigger at the island. And all the dolphins. We did see a lot that morning! What a joy. Best, Cristina

Captain Ty was great, we saw a ton of dolphins and he took time to explain interesting facts about the intercoastal waters and it’s islands.
