I had a great time on the two-hour Whale and Dolphin Watching Adventure Tour. We saw lots of dolphins, and the captain even steered the boat in a way that made the dolphins leap and twirl out of the water. I think it had something to do with the boat’s wake and drafting, maybe? I especially appreciated the crew’s knowledge about the animals. There was a naturalist on board who educated the passengers about whales and dolphins and answered all my questions. The food is a bit pricey, which I expected, but I think you can bring your own refreshments. Make sure you bring cash if you do want to purchase food or drinks.

The Captain learned from the naturalist aboard it was my wife's birthday. He announced it over the PA and everyone sang happy birthday. Memorable.
