We never saw one dolphin, which sucks, u pay all that money and get your hopes up. Also leaving a 3 star bc, I was told parking was 5.00, not 10.00 when we got there. That was not fair to treat your first time customers like this.

Hi Charlene! We are so sorry your tour did not see dolphins- that is a total bummer! We don’t advertise it as a guarantee and being that dolphins are wild animals we can’t control them! In regards to the state park increasing their pricing for parking- we apologize. We hope your guide was professional and that you were able to enjoy the kayaking aspect of the tour.

We had a wonderful time on the Kayak Tour! The guides were wonderful! We saw Dolphins and the guides made everything so easy! The water was perfect and we enjoyed the sunset as we came back in! I highly recommend Sunset Dolphins Tours!

Didn't have much hope of finding a kayak dolphin tour since we only had one day and sure didn't expect one of the best tours we've ever had but that's what we got! I called in the morning. Matt called us back quickly and worked with our limited time to give us a great experience. I think he might have even ordered up the weather just for us as it was calm and beautiful! Quick thorough instructions and in we went. We saw dolphins immediately and paddled with them. Amazing and beautiful! Matt is a great conversationalist and sea life expert. He shared his expertise and stories, educating and entertaining us as we paddled and watched the dolphins. He took a bunch of great pictures and air dropped them at the end of our tour. We plan to do another tour on our next trip to Virginia Beach. Matt is a local who knows the area and how to provide a great tour. Highly recommend!
