    With a stellar reputation built over 15+ years, this outfit clearly knows how to deliver memorable dolphin encounters and eco-tours. Captain Ty, Josh, and Mike lead tours alongside knowledgeable naturalists like Ashley, Christina, and Savannah, who bring the local wildlife and ecosystem to life with fascinating details about dolphins, birds, manatees, and mangrove habitats. Guests consistently rave about seeing multiple dolphin pods, often playing in the boat's wake, plus spotting ospreys, bald eagles, and other wildlife. The shelling island stops are a particular hit with families. The crew's friendly, professional approach stands out across reviews. They take time to answer questions, accommodate special requests (like hunting down manatees for an eager kid), and create a relaxed atmosphere on clean, spacious pontoon boats. Parking can get tight, so arriving early helps. While one tour had exceptionally abundant dolphin activity, the captain honestly noted that experiences vary, though every review suggests wildlife sightings are reliably impressive regardless.

    I purchased our tickets through another platform on black Friday and got a great deal. Finding the place was easy. Parking was a little difficult as we had to wait for people to leave to find a spot, but as long as you get there with plenty of time, it shouldn't be a problem. The boat was a large pontoon, so there was plenty of room. The tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We saw a pod of dolphins immediately. After watching them for a bit, we moved down the bay and saw another pod, then another. After that, the captain had us all go to the back so we could pick up speed and see if the dolphins would join our wake, and they did for quite a while! The guides also took us to view some birds. We saw several kinds, including ospreys and a bald eagle. When we turned around and came back, the different dolphin pods joined our wake again! It was the highlight of the trip for our family! The captain did tell us that if we come back, we should lower our expectations because that doesn't always happen, so I guess we were really lucky, but either way, it was an enjoyable trip and I would recommend it for families of any age.
