The dolphin cruises and fishing charters out of this Myrtle Beach operation draw consistent praise, with crews like Captain Lee, Austin, Captain Tripp, and Blake earning repeated callouts by name. Dolphin sightings are frequent and often spectacular, with multiple pods spotted on many trips, and the knowledgeable staff tend to weave in local history and area information along the way. Fishing trips across multiple durations, from half-day outings to longer Gulfstream adventures, regularly result in keepers being landed, and the crew's ability to find fish gets mentioned again and again. One reviewer had a rougher experience on a crowded half-day trip, noting disorganized staff and missed moments, so if you're fishing with kids or a small group, it may be worth looking into private or smaller charter options. Accessibility is also worth considering on the dolphin tours, as boarding during low tide and the onboard bathroom setup can be challenging for those with limited mobility. That said, the company does seem to go out of their way when things don't go as planned, including offering return trips when dolphins are scarce or finding creative alternatives when scheduling falls through.
My family had an amazing time spending half the day with Captain Trip and Mate Kelly. It was our first time deep-sea fishing, and we can’t wait to do it again. Captain Trip and Mate Kelly were knowledgeable, efficient, and attentive. My favorite part was their easygoing personalities and great humor. I highly recommend requesting them when you book; you won’t regret it!
