The boat did not match the description; it was crowded and too small for the number of passengers, and there was an unpleasant fishy odor.
The trip was both fun and engaging. I saw many dolphins, and there was more space on the boat than I had anticipated. I will definitely return.
The dolphin watching experience was fantastic. Both the captain and the deckhand were excellent. I can't wait to do this again.
This experience exceeded our expectations! My kids, aged 8 and 6, thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and I did as well. Sabastian shared his extensive knowledge about ocean life, teaching us as he pulled up various creatures from the net, including starfish, a bird fish, a crab, and butterfly rays. The kids got to hold them, and we had the chance to see dolphins up close near the boat. The outing was surprisingly budget-friendly, and my kids can't stop discussing how fantastic it was. Thank you!
The staff was wonderful and the boat was clean and well-maintained. They worked hard to ensure we spotted plenty of dolphins—at least 20! We also learned about various sea creatures and had the chance to hold a few.
Booking was simple, and the communication along with the staff's friendliness made for a great experience. The meeting point was easy to locate, and the guide provided excellent insight while showcasing beautiful views. My 14-year-old daughter thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend this for everyone—families, kids, and seniors alike.
Captain Mike and his crewmate Eric were excellent. They had extensive knowledge of the area and communicated it effectively. They even went out of their way to rescue a distressed individual in the gulf, ensuring their safety before continuing our tour. It was impressive to see them handle such a critical situation with skill and precision.
It was fantastic! Even though our usual boat was unavailable, they managed to accommodate everyone, and we got to see plenty of dolphins.
Absolutely book this tour! It’s incredible and worth every moment. Captain Murphy shares extensive knowledge, making it more than just a dolphin tour. I gained valuable insights about the region and its marine life. I’ll certainly return!
For anyone who enjoys being on the water, this experience is fantastic for the cost! It's amazing to see the dolphins.
