We took the 10 am tour on this Cruise from Salty Sam's marina in Fort Myers Beach on Estero Island. Finding the ticket office was a bit of a pain in this marina since many cruises depart. However the place is so nice with lots of trees and other facilities that we did not mind. They boarded exactly at 10 am and it was a 2 hour relaxing cruise. The Captain is passionate about Dolphins as we learned from his trusty assistant. We saw plenty of Dolphins and other birds. The Captain sure seemed very sharp eyed since he saw them from a distance, cut the engines and coasted near them to get pictures. Descriptions of what you saw were also excellent! They also serve drinks on board if you are so inclined! Very nice relaxing cruise through Estero bay and lovely houses and boat lifts on either side!

We went on a sunset cruise March 1, 2020 The trip turned into a dolphn watch and sunset cruise. The crew was fantastic ! The Captain and Mate Jeremy provided personal stories as well as informational stories about the dolphins, the history of south Florida and the wildlife in the area. I highly recommend one of their cruises.

Awesome family experience. Highly recommend for any age groups. Our Captain Teddy and Bartender Jeremy were great hosts, both extremely entertaining and knowledgeable. Our Dolphin tour exceeded our expectations. Captain Teddy maneuvered the boat just right so we saw many many dolphins including pups who swam alongside our boat with their mom, so cool to witness. All four generations in our group really enjoyed our cruise from start to finish. Souvenir store shopping was a big hit with all as well, from toys to apparel 50 % off😄. Nicole, who runs ticket counter and store, is very friendly and helpful. Don’t hesitate to take this Dolphin cruise, all are sure to have fun. Very pleased, thanks Captain Teddy, Jeremey and Nicole.

Great Trip! Found it on Groupon. Captain Teddy and Skyler were great! Extremely knowledgeable about the local wildlife and were great hosts. We saw several manatees, followed a trio of dolphins for a while, and Captain Teddy was able to pull along side the dolphins in such a way that they played in the boat's wake! All our friends loved the trip and we agreed we'd bring the kids next time!

Thank you for cruising with us. We have noticed that with the lower than normal boat traffic on the water, the local wildlife are really enjoying the quiet waters. Manatee are magnificent creatures aren't they? Thanks again for your visit.

Captain Terry was a complete JERK! Kept lecturing on mask use and threatened to return the boat to shore and kick people off the boat. There was a sum total of 12 people on the 47 passenger boat and that’s including the crew! His whole attitude ruined the trip from the very beginning! He acted like it was really difficult for him to be there. What little information he did tell us about was delivered in a very dull, non-interesting tone of voice! We don’t mind following the rules, but you don’t need to threaten your customers either. Would not recommend this trip to anyone!

Booked at the last minute at dock. Lady at counter was very accomodating and got us on the sunset cruise at the last minute. Captain Teddy and First Mate Jeremy were professional, informative and a lot of fun. Jeremy makes a great cocktail as well! We were very fortunate that a mother dolphin and her adolescent child were playing in the bay. Captain brought the boat as close as he could and idled the engines so that we could watch close up. The two dolphins gave a great show. Then, we saw a beautiful sunset with a sailboat between us and the sun just as it set. Fantastic photos! Both the captain and first mate were very informative and truly seemed to love the sea, dolphins and sunset. They also pointed out many features including bird island, sunken boats, landmarks, etc. A very enjoyable 9 minutes. We will definitely be back!

A small group of us found a groupon for the dolphin cruise, so we decided to take the trip while we were on vacation. It was a perfect relaxing afternoon cruise with Captain Teddy and his co captain/bartender. They were fun to spend 2 hours with watching dolphins and exploring the area. We will definitely go on this cruise again!!

Both Captain Teddy and First Mate Jeremy were great! Captain Teddy gave us a lot of educational information about dolphins, birds and the native Americans who were first in the area.
We saw a lot of dolphins early on in the cruise and the captain got them to follow the boat and surf in the wake.
So cool to see the baby dolphin as well.
All in all a great experience!

Picture perfect day for cruising Estero Bay. Our captain and his crew were perfect hosts. Our bartender kept everyone happy with a wide range of reasonably priced adult beverages.
Highly recommended for all ages. The cruise was a mix of the captains informative chatter and great music.
Our Captain went out of his way to make sure we had many spectacular dolphin sightings.

Took some time to convince my family that this was the best way to spend our last vacation day in Ft. Myers Beach, but they were universally delighted by the end of the boat ride. We took the Dolphin & Wildlife Adventure (2 hour) Cruise and had so much fun. We must have seen about 20 dolphins, no kidding, and they were jumping all around the boat as well. We got some great videos and wonderful memories. The crew on board was easy going & informative too. It seemed everyone on the boat had a great time, a lot of laughter all around -- a perfect way to complete our family vacation. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for cruising with us, we appreciate you! We think our captains know how to talk to dolphins. That's why they always put on a show for our guests!

The cruise we were on, dolphin viewing, did not. But the captain referenced a trip to a local island that the company does. Just ask.
