Kaylee and Justin are the best!
The 4 of us had such an amazing time! Check-in was super easy, and the lady who greeted us was incredibly nice, welcoming, and helpful. Kaylee and Justin were so much fun, attentive, and made our experience even more enjoyable. We had a wonderful and would absolutely book again. Thank you for helping make our experiences so memorable ❤️

Best crew you’ll find in Destin!
We have went quite a few times over the years. This time we went twice. Chris was the mate both times and was great! Cody & Daniel were also great at interacting with the group! Every-time we go we have been able to see dolphins and other sea life. I really enjoy the music and it’s neat to see the kids drive the boat. I have had Cody several times on AJ’s dolphin cruises and he has always been great! This was my first experience with Daniel and I really enjoyed his company as well! As always my favorite dolphin cruises tour in the Destin area!

Tailfins with Captain Mike
I’ve been to Destin a few times, but never to Crab Island. I’m so glad we chose Tailfins Tikis , our Captain Mike was the best!! He played a mix of music to satisfy everyone onboard (jamming) and we parked in the perfect spot. I would book them over and over!!!

Great trip and we highly recommend it!!
Captain Ben was awesome. He welcomed us and helped get everything and everyone on board. Ben was very entertaining and engaging with everyone on board. We were a family of 4 adults and we shared the tiki with another, larger group. Anytime Captain Ben heard a can being crushed, he was quick to bring you a fresh beverage and take the empty back to the tiki.

Our experience was 10/10....
Our experience was 10/10. The boat arrived on time and the crew made sure it was cleaned before we boarded. The captain was very informative and entertaining as he told us about some of the history of Destin and all about the dolphins. The crew was amazing and very helpful. From serving up snacks and drinks to taking pictures for everyone on board, they were very attentive. Overall I enjoyed our tour and will definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Awesome
don't be late. check your booking to make sure you have the address where you are supposed to be going. we went to the wrong address and lost time. check your receipt to make sure the correct number of skis you rented. allow enough time to get lost if you are not familiar with the area. bring only essentials. you don't need a lot to ride. again, don't be late.

Super fun!
It was super fun! You get more bang for your buck because you get to zip around the gulf pretty fast and the boat sits lower on the water so you can get closer for better photos of the dolphins. This is the best water excursion I’ve been on so far. 10/10

Amazing Family Boating Day!
The process was quick and seamless, although we would like to have known about the $600 hold &/or additional $69 insurance in advance versus day of at check in. Everybody was very nice, the equipment was in great shape and we thoroughly enjoyed Crab Island and the surrounding smaller islands and beaches. We can't wait to return!!!

Although our boat wasn’t...
Although our boat wasn’t at full capacity, Captain Wil took my two teenage girls and I out! Along the way, he gave helpful tips about Crab Island and other things to do and places to eat. The girls loved the floating lily pad, tubes, and volleyball that he provided. Great one-of-a-kind experience!

Amazing adventure
Love the energy from start to finish. I had an amazing time and the views were absolutely beautiful. The trip felt safe the entire way, and the guys did an incredible job keeping everyone entertained. The music playlist was phenomenal. Thank you all for an unforgettable adventure!

Do it!
It was a little hidden but, we found it pretty easily. We went to rent a jetski for my husbands first time. Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The instructors answered all my questions and went through everything with us. They were super in depth on safety. Will definitely be going back!

We had a wonderful time...
We had a wonderful time on our sunset dolphin cruise! The boat was beautiful and the crew were friendly and very helpful. I would highly recommend this for a relaxing time out on the water. The tour would have been well worth the time and money even if we hadn't seen dolphins. Thankfully we saw plenty of beautiful dolphins though! The whole experience was so memorable and was a highlight of our vacation.
