The captain was great. We were lucky enough to do the later cruise on a weekday and had the island to ourselves! Saw a bunch of different wildlife

The experience was awesome….Captain Brian did a great job. Took his time to show us the dolphins and spotting the Manatees. His knowledge of the wildlife enriched our experience.

The cruise had some good things. The boat Captian was great. Very knowledgeable about the area. The bad part is the boat was rough. On our way back from the island the winds had picked up and let me tell you. This morning we woke up feeling like we had been through a head on collision with a semi. If your going on this cruise sit on back of boat.

Captain Chris was great! Very knowledgeable - determined to find us dolphins and took us to Shell Key where we had a blast. It was really a great part of our trip. I’m so glad we did it.

Such a great experience! Captain Chris went above and beyond to make the trip even better than it would have been. Saw many dolphins on way to Shell Key and back. So fun being on the water. Got some gorgeous shells just walking in and by the beach - I didn’t realize how cool they were until I really looked at later. Shell Key was beautiful. I highly recommend- awesome half day trip. Felt same entire time. Captain Chris very knowledgable, helpful, and friendly.

Our captain and guide was great! Felt like we rented a boat with Captain for the afternoon. He was super chill and made the time fun and relaxing. There were only 4 of us on the afternoon tour so it was relaxing. We saw a couple dolphins and a manatee. We also hunted for the perfect shells. There were so many! Great time!

Captain Cris made it a great experience. He talked about safety measures and made sure we were comfortable before departing. The boat ride was awesome. We were followed by several dolphins and got to see them so close. The captain also shared interesting facts about the dolphins we did not know. The island we got to was surreal. It’s best for you to book this experience to be able to live it. Overall, I highly recommend this trip!

Captain Chris was absolutely a total pro and treated my 7 year old like a princess. We saw plenty of dolphins and the little one found a bunch of beautiful shells on the little island we visited. Thank you for a great time!
