I enjoyed my cruise a lot as I was yearning to get out on the water, but I'm not sure I would have spent the bucks to take out a whole family. We did see dolphins up close, and the skipper and his partner were pleasant and entertaining. There is a bathroom and you can buy a soda for $1.... More

Boat ride is nice, saw some dolphins. Snorkel stop is basic not to many fish yo see. Island is cool but you don't get much time there not sure if it's worth the money? More

Capt. Ian and Capt. Steve(even though he's a Michigan fan) give a fantastic tour. They both are funny and have knowledge of the dolphins and Shell Island. The water was perfect, Capt. Steve knew just where to go to see many dolphins at play. Shell Island was fun and the kids collected many shells......worth the price and memories. More
