This is the second time I have done this tour which says a lot. It is educational while being fun and interesting. The captain and crew were delightful and knowledgeable. We saw and learned about so much more than just dolphins. I may even do this a third time down the road in the years ahead.

My family of four, including two kiddos ages 3 and 4, went on a sunset dolphin tour. I am so glad we did! Seeing dolphins is of course not guaranteed, but we saw a handful and the Captain kept us near them as long as possible. We got lucky and the dolphins were interested in the boat and seemed to want to stick around as well. We also got to see manatee briefly. It was such an awesome experience. Everyone was kind and friendly. We enjoyed being able to move around out of our seats to get better views of the dolphins. This was especially helpful as 1.5 hours is a long time for preschoolers to sit still. We felt safe with our kids on this boat and definitely felt as if the team was happy to have them there as well.

Captain Troup & First Mate Kathy were fabulous! Very knowledgeable, funny and super personable. The dolphin tour was the perfect way to end a long day of meetings! The ride was smooth, and we saw a ton of dolphins, a bald eagle and caught a stunning sunset. Highly recommend!!
