The trip is always enjoyable. I’ve gone three times & never disappointed. Always enjoyable seeing the dolphins, but Cpt Ed is great narrating along with his shipmate. I enjoy watching people’s reaction almost as much watching the dolphins. Every trip is a new adventure. The “Toot” is the best!

Amazing Dolphin views!

Sheri_M, Apr 2026
We were lucky enough to spot a large pod of dolphins and our crew knew how to engage these gorgeous animals so they would follow the boat and jump in and out of the wake. So fun!!

Fantastic!

10/10 experience! We saw a large pod of dolphins with 2 babies! The crew was personable and funny! They made my daughter feel social for her bday as well.

Trista_P, Apr 2026
There’s not a bad seat. Everyone lines up early to sit in the back of the boat but once the dolphins start “playing” everyone stands up to watch, so your seat becomes irrelevant. Great tour!

Great time on the little toot, saw two groups of dolphins thought they were gonna jump in boat! Great experience

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 A Must do!!

Angela_H, Mar 2026
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 – A MUST-DO IN CLEARWATER! If you’re anywhere near Clearwater Beach, you have to experience The Little Toot Dolphin Adventure, it’s hands-down one of my absolute favorite things to do here! I live locally, and I still take every single family member and friend who comes to visit on this boat… and it never disappoints. Every. Single. Time. 🐬✨ We always see dolphins, and not just from a distance, they’re swimming right alongside the boat, playing in the wake. It feels magical no matter how many times you’ve done it. The staff is consistently kind, welcoming, and fun, which makes the whole experience even better. You can tell they genuinely care about giving everyone a great time. And honestly? Even though I live here, every time I step on that boat, I feel like I’m on vacation all over again. There’s just something about being out on the water, the sunshine, the breeze, and those dolphins that never gets old. If you’re visiting (or even if you’re a local like me), this is a 10 out of 10 experience you don’t want to miss. I’ll keep coming back again and again! 🌊💙

Dolphins!!

Sarah_W, Mar 2026
FANTASTIC!!!! Mama dolphin and her calves came out to play within minutes of leaving the dock and frolicked along side!! Beautiful views everywhere the eye could see. FANTASTIC EXCURSION!!!

Best dolphin adventure in Florida.

Randall_M, Mar 2026
We have gone on many dolphin tours around Clear Water FL and Little Toot is the best. Because of the shape of hull, it creates a huge wake right off the back of the boat that the dolphins love to play in. You get a closer view of the dolphins than on any other boat.

Very good experience!...

Xinhui_Y, Mar 2026
Very good experience! They are very expertise in finding and attracting dolphins! Good music and introduction about tampa

A tour for all ages!

Victoria_S, Mar 2026
We all learned a few things about dolphins and watched them most of the time we were in the gulf! Our 11 yo granddaughter was thrilled! I recommend sitting in the prow for the best view if you don’t mind getting a bit splashed!

Friendly staff, clean boat, saw dolphins. Wish we could have been closer to the dolphins but it didn't happen that day.

Nice dolphin tour

JEdward_A, Mar 2026
The crew were knowledgeable and friendly. We were fortunate enough to see several dolphins rather quickly, and had a few follow the boat for a while. It was a nice experience.

Great trip

Timothy_M, Mar 2026
Amazing trip! One of the best dolphin tours we’ve been on! Every time we have been here we have seen dolphins!

Up-close dolphin sightings and a great crew!

Richard_B, Feb 2026
My wife and I had a fantastic time on the Little Toot. The tugboat style is unique—it’s low to the water, which makes for an "up-close and personal" experience when the dolphins start playing in the wake. We saw several dolphins jumping and surfing right behind the boat! ​The tour was well-narrated and the crew was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It’s a comfortable, fun ride that delivers exactly what it promises. If you want a guaranteed dolphin sighting and a great view of the harbor, this is the one to book!

Boat is clean. Staff were...

Jane_M, Feb 2026
Boat is clean. Staff were nice and friendly. They were persistent on finding the dolphins:) But honestly even if we didn’t find any dolphins we were very satisfied with the boat cruise:) highly recommended!

Wonderful!

LeeAnn_R, Feb 2026
Absolutely wonderful! We saw dolphins immediately and they played for us with wake. Such a wonderful experience. Immaculate boat with welcoming and knowledgeable hosts. It is a must!

Beautiful boat ride of...

David_M, Feb 2026
Beautiful boat ride of the bay, even if we had not seen dolphins. Luckily, at the end we did and that great video of them jumping over waves behind us playing with the boat. Only complaint is that although everyone on the crew was nice, the woman narrating the Tour had a heavy accent and was speaking in a melodic voice, so I could not understand half of what she was saying. Perhaps it was a problem with the microphone. Maybe too close to her mouth?

You really do see...

Beverly_G, Feb 2026
You really do see dolphins. It was fun to watch them surfing in the boats wake. The workers were informative and they played great music.
