Reviews on Tripadvisor

“This was a great trip for our group. Neil did an excellent job and he was very friendly. The boat was very comfortable for our group of 5 adults ages 18-76. We saw lots of dolphins and other wildlife. The scenery was beautiful.”
“There were 7 of us on our tour and we had SUCH a blast! Captain Neil is awesome, great tunes, great commentary, and lots of laughs. We were 7 and had heaps of room on the boat. Beautiful sunset and great time out!”
“Captain Neil was great. We saw many dolphins in many different areas. At one point they were on all sides of the boat. We also got a nice tour of the area and some good food recommendations. We will definitely come back and do another trip with captain Neil!”
“Dolphins up close and so much more Captain Dave gave my wife and I an outstanding tour. Our guide was personable, prepared, knowledgeable, and had plenty of insider stories about the area. The weather unexpectedly did not cooperate so we did not experience much of the sunset that night due to cloud cover. But a beautiful evening nonetheless. You can’t control nature. On a far more positive note, we were able to see at least 10 dolphins up close, including a mother and her calf. Everything we expected. I would completely recommend this.”
“Captain Moto was absolutely amazing! Really enjoyed the experience and catered it to our family! Highly recommended!”
“Super fun sunset cruise and amazing scenery. Would definitely recommend captain Dave and will book with him again when we are back in town!”
“Captain Neil and team are the best - great boats, warm, friendly captains, in depth local knowledge - truly leaving nothing to be desired. Such a nice way to spend a few hours in a gorgeous place.”
