After trying to decide which dolphin cruise to take on Hilton Head, my husband and I chose Live OAC because we were staying at the RV resort right next to where their dock is. I was a little hesitant because it costs alot more than many of the other dolphin cruises on the island but that worry went right out... More

My husband and I went on the 2 hour dolphin/nature cruise. We saw several dolphins, a sea turtle, and lots of native birds. Our captain, Kai I think seemed knowledgeable and was very personable. Highly recommend. More

What a great day on the water. Our guide, Scott, was very nice and made sure we saw dolphins, oyster beds, crabs and even a bald eagle. Would definitely do this again on our next trip to HHI. More

This was an amazing experience! My husband and I along with our friends and their toddler went on the 2 hour tour with Captain Travis. It was obvious that Captain Travis was very knowledgeable about the environmental surroundings and weather. He did a great job of avoiding the nearby showers to take us to see several pods of dolphins, a... More

Our captain was very nice and made the trip very fun. Even though our trip was a bit chilly, it was a great experience and most enjoyable. our dolphin tour was on a less busy area of the island as well so we enjoyed the peacefulness as well. More

Tavis was a fantastic tour guide and boat captain. We saw a total of 10 dolphins. The 2 hour tour is a must. Very private and personal experience. Visit Chef David's after for a local lunch. More

We went to OAC for a 2 hour tubing adventure for the second year in a row with my daughters golf team and they had the best time ever. They are still laughing about the stories and how much fun it was. Captain Blair and Captain Rick were wonderful again. They were great in understanding that some were new to... More

We took a 2-hour tour with Live Oac and we are so glad we did. Kyle took us out on a relaxing cruise through the wildlife area where we saw various animals including dolphins and eagles. He pointed out many interesting features and facts during our boat ride. If you take this tour, be sure to bring your camera with... More
