We at The Tropics Boat Tours invite you to join us for a memorable experience aboard our newly remodeled tropical-themed, double-decker catamaran. Our vessel accommodates up to 125 passengers and the two decks allow you the option to sail in the sunshine and open air on the top deck or relax in the shade on the lower level. We are proud to offer boat tours which include guaranteed dolphin sightings, children's activities and complimentary soft drinks, beer and wine - all while sailing the beautiful waters of the Gulf of Mexico. We look forward to hosting you aboard "The Tropics" and appreciate the opportunity to serve you. And remember that all our cruises include complimentary beer, wine and soft drinks. You may also purchase your favorite cocktails, frozen drinks or snacks from our full service bar.

This is a fun outing for friends, families, or couples. Every time I have been on this cruise I have seen multiple dolphins. One time I saw six! Only thing I didn't like was the fact that alcohol was served on the boat.

Sailed with these guys this week. Got amazing shots of dolphins including a young one. The guys were great with a great line in banter Well worth the money. Would recommend these over the other boats on either side of them.

1 review Great experience! Friendly fun staff and saw lots of happy dolphins. Get the drink package! The front of the bottom deck is the best place to stand. Also good for a tour of clearwater area!

The crew was great. We saw so many pods of dolphins with their youngsters, the best ever! I took this tour last year and saw nothing, but this year more than made up for it. As I said, the crew was great, and we saw so many dolphins, even our guide said it was more than normal. This was a...

Bailey answered the phone and was very helpful in providing the requested information. We had brought food for my parents because they are vegetarian (and...

We had a blast with the crew who were so friendly and funny. Very informative about the island and area. Highly recommended. We didn't see any dolphins but the tour guide said that in the 6 years he has been doing this jib this is the first day no dolphin were seen. Probably had to do with the hurricane.

We saw a lot of dolphins and had a great time! The crew was great! They were courteous, attentive, and funny. No one drank too much... all the passengers were calm and well behaved. There were several young kids (ages 4-8) and the crew taught them about dolphins and the boat. All the kids received certificates at the end of...

We had a great time but only 2 dolphins. Crew was nice, funny and the boat very clean. We were given a free trip next time we were down since we really didn't see many dolphins. Very nice gesture. Parking is a pain though in that area. Give yourself plenty of time to park.
