    Families absolutely rave about this outfit, with multiple captains and crew earning praise by name. Captain Dirty, Misti, Turtle, and others consistently get called out for going above and beyond to make dolphin encounters memorable. Guests regularly spot dolphins in multiple pods, plus bonus wildlife like turtles, eagle rays, and spider crabs. The tours accommodate everyone from babies to teenagers, and many reviewers mention this becoming part of their PCB tradition. The crews are described as knowledgeable, caring, and genuinely invested in showing guests a great time. Several people mention captains taking photos for families and making sure everyone feels comfortable and safe throughout the trip. The experience includes both boat rides and Shell Island stops. One reviewer did mention an address issue when trying to find the location, and there was one isolated complaint about unprofessional behavior, but these seem to be rare exceptions in an otherwise overwhelmingly positive track record. Most guests leave calling it an unforgettable adventure they'd absolutely do again.

    My family and I went out Tuesday morning with Captain Dirty. He made our experience very memorable. We saw and swam with the dolphins, turtles, spider crabs, scallops and Eagle ray. It was a fantastic experience that everyone should do while at PCB. He went out of his way to make sure our trip was everything we had hoped for. Highly recommend!!
