With an outstanding reputation built on thousands of satisfied customers, this operator delivers consistently memorable sunset dolphin cruises. The crew, particularly Dan and Kyle, get frequent shoutouts for creating a fun, safe atmosphere while navigating through the Intercoastal to Sarasota Bay. Guests rave about the dolphin sightings – these aren't just distant glimpses but close encounters with dolphins racing alongside and playing in the boat's wake, perfectly timed with stunning Gulf Coast sunsets. The experience seems to resonate across all age groups, with one parent noting how rare it is to find something teenage girls genuinely enjoy doing with family. While the vast majority praise the crew's professionalism, a couple reviews mention the captain could be overly strict about safety protocols, though others appreciated his attention to keeping things under control when passengers got rowdy. The young first mate Kyle consistently earns praise for his friendly, professional demeanor. Bottom line: you're getting a well-run operation in a prime location that regularly delivers on its promise of dolphins and breathtaking sunsets.
Chad and Kory were awesome. We had a great time. We saw some dolphins playing and following us in the wake behind the boat. Saw a couple Manatees and lots of different birds. It was so much fun! Awesome tunes too! Highly recommend Siesta Key Watersports!
