Excellent. Led by Captain Morgan and Dawson we took the Sunset cruise and were promised we would see dolphins and we saw many. The sunset was fabulous. The crew interacted with the passengers on a personal level with fun stories and history of the surrounding area.
They enjoyed their job which showed during the cruise. They also explained the history of crab island that enticed us to comeback next year with our whole family.
The price of this cruise was incredibly affordable in comparison to others.
We recommend this cruise and would definitely do it again.

We had a very nice, professional crew! They explained safety features and checked to see if anyone was seasick due to waves. We saw lots of dolphins.
Punctual, fun, interactive, SO many dolphins! Great music, great captains!
Would definitely do this cruise again!
The dolphin experience was great.Really had a good time , but the sunset photos were beautiful. Would highly recommend
The guys were great. Made sure we seen dolphins was a great time my 87 year old mom and us would recommend to others
Captain Morgan amd his crew were absolutely amazing... we had a great cruise... what a great way to spen the evening before our wedding...and the dolphins showed up amd fully jumped out of the water!! It was spectacular!!!
Loved seeing the wildlife. Beautiful cruise. Nice crew. Sunset cruise was wonderful. Celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary.
We had such a good time! Captain of yellow bands was amazing! Will be back next time we visit Florida!
I've never been on a boat ride to watch the dolphins, and it was awesome. What really took me was the sunset I loved it the most it was so beautiful and peaceful.
We had an amazing time , the dolphins were everywhere! The music was excellent and the sunset was spectacular! We got lots of wonderful pictures to remind us why we come to the Gulf!
We didn’t get to go on the cruise but of the “weather” it sprinkled for like 5 minutes then cleared up they had plenty of other cruises going out but ours. Very disappointing since it was late and we couldn’t book nothing else to do on our last day here
We had a great experience. The captain made it so fun. He made sure we found some dolphins. Played some great music, and watched a beautiful sunset.
It was a wonderful time would do it again there was so many dolphins was very excited about it came with my brother celebrating his birthday he wasn’t disappointed
Such a magical experience! Highly recommend. We saw tons of dolphins! It was incredible from start to finish.
Instructions on where to park and how to find the boat at the marina were a bit unclear, but the cruise itself was great!
Absolutely amazing !!From the checkin to boarding super fast and easy process with an amazing crew!It was a wonderful experience to wrap up my son's last week of summer!Him and I did have a wonderful time together.We are just locals but we are super incredible with Jjjjjjjjj the experiences we have had ,watching the sunset and the dolphins .Very nice experience as always!We loved it!
Was not disappointed wit the dolphins. Plenty to see. The sunset would have been great but clouds got in the way. No fault of the company.
Get time dolfin watching. Captain and his mate were excellent. We got to see a beautiful sunset and a lot of dolfins!
It was a great time but what you need to know is that you are not guaranteed dolphins out of the water except their fins and tail. However, the captain made every attempt to follow the dolphins.
We loved it! Excellent experience! Friendly staff, enjoyed the ride and saw plenty of dolphins! 100% would do it again!
I had little children that was supposed to have on life jackets but there was none . Also captain went fast knowing there would be waves from the other boats . I went to see the dolphins and the sunset . I didn’t go to get me and 2 children under 5 soaking wet from the waves that splashed us inside the boat . You asked them how they like the dolphins and sunset trip all they can think about is how they got wet from the boat going fast . So do better .
Response from Host, Sep 2026
We do have life jackets in case of emergency. If you would like to use the emergency life jackets, all you had to do was ask the captain and we would have been happy to assist. Being on a boat, getting wet is always a possibility.
I've done other small cruises that were way better and cheaper than this one. The waves were really choppy so we kept rocking terribly and we felt nauseous for a long time. It was cool to see the dolphins but after about 3 minutes we were done. The people driving the boat weren't very interactive so we weren't very impressed.
we had an amazing time on the sunset and dolphin cruise!! was the highlight of our trip! our captain was so knowledgeable and kind. he answered all of our questions and told amazing stories! we also had a great time listening to his playlist on the boat. the music and atmosphere was a 10/10. we went right after a storm, and the water was very high, but we were still able to find a dolphin!! it was an amazing time and i can’t recommend enough.
I am extremely disappointed with my experience. We arrived for our scheduled sunset dolphin cruise, but there was no one at the booth, and no cruise ever took place. We repeatedly called the company and sent messages, but no one answered or responded. There was no communication, no explanation, and no notice that the tour had been canceled or delayed.
This was a complete waste of our time and put a damper on our plans. Customer service was nonexistent, and the lack of communication was unacceptable. I would not recommend this company based on our experience and hope they improve how they treat their customers.
The cruise was cancelled because of a storm. We were given the opportunity to reschedule or a full refund. Our refund was processed very promptly.
Show up early it’s a long walk But it well worth it. We saw a lot of dolphins and had a great time don’t park at Margaritaville. It was at the other end of the Doc parking was $18.
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!
It was great. The boat was not over crowded like a lot of the others are. Crew was great. Just all around a good time
Great captain and guide. Definitely made the experience fun! Would definitely recommend for a great family fun time.
Our tour guides were very friendly and intentional about making sure everyone was comfortable and got to see dolphins. The sunset was incredible. There is a little bathroom on board and you can bring your drinks or small cooler with you. We 100% would book again. It was a blast.
The boat was crowded but not overly. Tyler and Luke were great at getting everything done, everyone settled and giving information as we rode.
We had a rather loud family group on the boat and they handled the situation perfectly, respectfully (great job & Thank You)
It was an absolute success saw dolphins and a beautiful sunset … Amazing Job guys, Thank You !!!!
