We saw a whole family of dolphins on the tour!!!! Also loved hearing the history of the island and all the high detail information about dolphins and manatees. We did see manatees poking their nose out of the water at a bit of a distance. and we were able to bring our dog on the tour which was really fun!! We absolutely loved the tour and will definitely do it again on our next trip here! My 2 kids and dog had a blast!

This dolphin cruise was all it promised to be. The beauty of the dolphins’ dancing in the water was such a joy to see. The captains’ humor and retelling of Jekyll history were an additional highlight of the cruise.

What a great way to spend a late afternoon! We saw SO. MANY. DOLPHINS! And, as a bonus, we ended up being gently bumped by and watching manatees as well! The guides were fantastic ~ full of trivia, information, and stories, and made it even more fun. We will definitely take this tour again!
