    The crew here clearly knows how to create memorable experiences on the water. Captain Steve, Tom, Evan, and the rest of the team get consistent praise for being friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about the local wildlife. Families especially appreciate how engaging they are with kids. The dolphin sightings seem to be a major highlight, with multiple reviews mentioning pods coming right up to the boat, plus bonus encounters with manatees and other marine life. The sunset cruises get particularly glowing feedback. A couple of guests found the shelling excursions less impressive than expected, noting the beaches were fairly basic and the shells no better than what you'd find elsewhere locally. One reviewer mentioned the long day felt static when weather conditions weren't ideal. That said, most visitors seem thrilled with their experiences, and the company earned loyalty from repeat customers who return year after year. The variety of tours means there's something for different interests, though the dolphin-focused trips appear to be the standout option.

    We did the Cayo Costa and Canbage Key shelling and lunch charter today and had the most amazing time. We saw a shark, manatees and dolphins! The crew was very friendly and knowledgeable. 100/10 highly recommend. Highlight of our week long vacation for sure
