Our family of four had a blast! The length of time was just right for our son, 4, and daughter, 7. We saw lots of dolphins and learned a ton about the wildlife and surrounding area. What really made this excursion fun, though, was the crew. Ryan and David were excellent with the kids, and they were so kind and helpful to all of us on board. Their humor was great, and they made an already great experience outstanding. Our kids got to safely touch and hold all kinds of creepy sea stuff (sea slugs, butterfly ray, puffer fish, etc.) with the guidance of Ryan and David. Captain Mike can’t be left out, either. He was fantastic and took good care of everyone. It was such a laid back, enjoyable feeling from beginning to end. The cost of the dolphin cruise was so affordable for our family, and we appreciated the ability to do something so special together. When you’re visiting SPI, this is a MUST DO, especially if you have younger kids!
