We learned a bit about the local landscape, one of the crew used a shrimp net to catch some sea life, and we saw a pod of three dolphins on our return. I have been in two other dolphin tours in North Padre Island and felt this trip was a bit disappointing. It was worth the price though!

I am sorry to hear this about your trip. Sometimes the dolphin are not very active, hope you enjoyed your trip overall though.

Arrived for the Dolphin watch and we were informed that we would be going on a deep sea fishing boat called the THUNDERBIRD because the regular dolphin tour ship was already in use. The THUNDERBIRD was NOT ACCEPTABLE to us. It smelled like dead fish, was very narrow, poor (if any) seating. I decided to go with a different tour company. I asked for a refund, was offered to go at a different time or a different day. That was not a option for our family. I was reluctantly told I would be refunded in 3-5 business days. I will be watching and waiting for that refund.
