Pros: friendly, on time, knowledgeable about Fort Pierce waterfront, local state park and its wildlife. Nice boat, clean with plenty of shade and comfortable seats. Allowed to bring your own refreshments. Adam maneuvered his craft well to & from the dock and amid the crowded waterways. We saw dolphins, and many birds. He cheerfully rescued a hat blown overboard. Easy pay with a credit card.

Cons: The boat was not the 25’ pontoon shown on the website. There was limited open space and the seating configuration divided our group of 5. Close proximity to the outboard motor for those sitting in the back made it hard to hear the narration or talk to anyone else.
No safety instructions prior to departing, like location of life jackets.
Captain Adam holds strong opinions about local issues and shared them for much of the tour. I wish he had stayed focused on the wildlife.

Captain Adam gave a wonderful 2 hour boat tour around Fort Pierce area. We saw many dolphins, manatee and other wildlife. I went with my kids (age 5 and 7) and parents (senior citizens) and we all had a blast seeing the dolphins play together and just being out on the water. Adam pointed out historic and nature areas. We would definitely do this again the next time we visit. He has a 6 passenger boat with an awning to block out the sun. He accepted most forms of payment. I paid through credit card.

The captain has lived in the area since the 1070's and knows his way around and was great. We saw dolphins, turtles manatees and various birds. Well worth the trip. It was just our family and we had a blast for almost 2 hours. I love supporting local businesses and this was well worth our vacation dollars. In addition he was on time, easy to find and communicated well before our trip. When it comes to wildlife tours every trip is different. It was a great experience. Thanks cap!

I called today with the intent to reserve a private tour for my family of 4 which is $240 because we wanted to do a private sunset cruise. Due to the fact that the day we wanted to schedule for is July 5th I was refused service. The individual whom I spoke with would not even consider booking the cruise for me. My family is going to be in town for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th and we are leaving early morning on the 6th. I was told that due to the fact that it would be a weekend that there would be too much traffic and there was no point in booking it. My children have been looking forward to this for weeks and now i get to disappoint them and tell them its not going to happen. I will be making arrangements with some other company who actually wants my money.

So rude when I called to find out about the tour. Don’t waste a dime with this jerk. The other local dolphin tour out of downtown marina next to Crabby’s in Fort Pierce is fantastic. Ended up going with them. It costs $23/pp for the same ride and you will get excellent service.

Captain Adam was professional, informative, and provided a great, relaxing tour. We saw Manatees and pods of dolphin up close and personal. They were within ten feet of the boat. The boat was comfortable and had plenty of shade. He is passionate about Ft. Pierce. I highly recommend him which is a personal tour, no large groups. Thank you.

My daughter, grandson and I enjoyed a wonderful time viewing many dolphins. We were lucky to see so many. Captain Adam was accommodating and professional. We also saw a shark, 2 manatees and many birds. I would highly recommend this excursion. The boat cruise itself was really relaxing and 11 year old grandson loved it!

Captain Adam gave us a great tour of the river, lagoon, and the inter coastal. We enjoyed his knowledge of the area, wildlife, and he did a great job of explaining where we were and what was what. We saw many dolphins, birds, and even a manatee! I would highly recommend this boat trip over any others. We will be back the next time we visit!

2 hour tour. 20 minutes of dolphin watching which was great. 1.5 hours of listening to what’s wrong with fort pierce and some derogatory ways to fix it. I didn’t pay to listen to a rant on what’s wrong with the world. Maybe the owner/captain was having a bad day. But you don’t use phrases like “Napalm those nig***s” in any Setting. Especially a professional one. I had a good cruise, but wish the captain was more professional or maybe just kept his views to himself.

We had a wonderful time on this tour, especially with Jr. Captain Raul! We saw tons of dolphin and learned all about the plant and animal life in this area. My kids (5, 8 & 13) all enjoyed it as did the adult members of our group. Captain Adam even recommended a great restaurant to end our vacation, and he was spot on. I highly recommend this tour.
