absolute best time on our sunset cruise with Captain Cole. From start to finish, everything was seamless — the boat was spotless, comfortable, and perfectly set up for a relaxing evening on the water.
Captain Cole made the trip extra special with his warm personality, local knowledge, and easygoing nature. He made us feel safe and at home while still keeping the energy fun. Watching the sun melt into the horizon with my best friends around me and the waves gently rocking beneath us felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
If you’re looking for the perfect mix of relaxation, adventure, and breathtaking views, this is it. I can’t recommend Captain Cole’s sunset cruise enough — already planning my next trip!

Very nice, relaxing. A perfect ending to a beautiful day. Our Captain Gene was very knowledgeable and nice. Highly recommend.

We were having a great time until the storms were rolling in and the boat captain called the trip short. Nothing bad on the captain or business, just the weather turned fast. We got to be out for about 30 minutes of our 90 minute tour. We were still able to see at least 1 dolphin and several jelly fish in that time. The captain was great and told us we would receive a refund for our unused time since he had to call the trip short. If we make it back down we will definitely book again.

Although the tides were high, so we could not see dolphins the day of our adventure, we really enjoyed our trip on the water with the captain Shawn and the family! Shawn made our experience just as great with nice conversation, hospitality, and knowledge of the area and locals. Would say this to be one of the best highlights of our stay in Destin! Highly recommend Destin pontoon charters and captain Shawn if you plan on taking a private sunset dolphin cruise you won’t regret it. Hands down a great experience and one to remember!

Captain was awesome! Made the ride extremely fun and was very engaging. Great views/great views/ worth it
Logan_B, Jul 2025
We booked very last minute private trip and had a lovely time cruising around the harbor with a pretty sunset near crab island. Sean was a great guide, giving us all the insights on the cool boats and was truly a trooper while we played our own music. Fully recommend Destin Pontoon!

The captain Jesse was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. The ladies at the ticket window was friendly and helped with all our needs.

Great experience. Captain Cole went out of his way to be engaging and find the perfect spot for dolphin sightings and sunset view.
Catrina_B, Apr 2025
Amazing relaxing night for our last night in Destin. We had 4 of us plenty of room, beautiful sunset and saw several dolphins.
Diane_P, Mar 2025
We really enjoyed our private sunset tour! Captain Jesse did a great job engaging us in conversation and helping everyone feel comfortable. He brought us to an area where we saw at least 12 dolphins! Some even came up to our boat. Both our teenagers loved the experience and we have so many lovely photos! I definitely recommend!

Wendi was awesome! Felt like a friend from home! We had a beautiful evening and the dolphins were out in big numbers! Always a beautiful sunset in Destin! It couldn’t have been any better! Drew was also very happy and kind!

I would type a paragraph if I could but:
EXCELLENT in every category!!!
-atmosphere
-pontoon
-dolphins
-sunset (clouds got in the way but it was the best we could get with what Mother Nature handed us)
Jett was AMAZING as our captain.
I could not recommend this business more.
Brady_S, Sep 2024
Awesome time with Captain Jesse! Clean, comfortable, and relaxing boat ride. Even though we didn’t get a sunset, seeing the harbor and a ton of dolphins was well worth it. If you’re looking for something more private & relaxing for a small group, this is by far the best in Destin!
vijay_n, Sep 2024
It was great experience. The captain kept us engaged throughout out the trip. Made sure we could spot dolphins
DORIAN_B, Aug 2024
The sunset was ideal & a different experience when you really lay attention to it. The guide was funny, relatable and informative. We did see one dolphin swimming among the boats for a brief period of a few minutes.
Diane_I, Jul 2024
It was a beautiful evening and our captain, Randy was great! He gave us flexibility with what we wanted to see. It was great to have a private excursion.
Ricardo_C, Jul 2024
Captain Rett was awesome. Knowledgeable and show us the bay, dolphins and crab island. Highly recommend this captain 👨✈️
Jemalin_H, Jul 2024
When we first took off, it began raining hard. Captain Jessie told us we can reschedule if we didn’t want to go out in the rain. We returned and waited a few minutes to see if it would subside, in which it had. It was an amazing cruise! Great sunset, service, and captain!
Kayla_G, Jul 2024
Kylie was a great captain! We enjoyed cruising around the harbor before heading out to watch the sunset! The kids got to play at crab island and enjoy the water!
Ryan_C, Jun 2024
We wanted a nice getaway for our Anniversary. The view was beautiful and our Captain Kylie was awesome. She was very friendly and informative. Even got to see dolphins 🐬. We will definitely be booking with her again.

Captain Randy was great! Our trip was most enjoyable. Smoke planes over Crab Island right before Thur night fireworks! Our 5yr olds most epic birthday! A must in Destin.
Hillary_S, May 2024
Captain Jesse was great! We had a wonderful view of the sunset. Boat was roomy and the meeting location was easy to find.
Laura_D, May 2024
We highly recommend, easy to book, easy to find, easy to relax and enjoy an evening on the water and a beautiful sunset!

Jesse was a great captain. He had to improvise due to weather conditions. We ended up going through the waterfront home areas and viewing the gorgeous boats and homes.

Went to spread my father’s ashes . Randy made this the best experience during one of the worst days of our lives. He was Amazing! Would do this sunset cruise again ..
Bente_R, Apr 2024
Had a wonderful Spring Break trip to Destin, and this was the highlight of everyone’s trip, both for the adults and kids. Spencer was our captain and gave us a memorable, relaxing sunset cruise. We were so surprised by just how many dolphins we saw…such a fun experience!
Raymond_R, Mar 2024
I booked the sunset cruise for my wife's birthay with a couple of friends. Randy took us out on a really nice little boat. There was plenty of room for the 4 of us. We brought a small cooler but I was the only one to touch a drnk (Pepsi).
Randy took us around to see some houses and boats docked in their slips. This was an interesting 20 minutes.
Then we headed out to see some dolpins. In about 20 minutes, we were spotting dolphins and soon we had a couple around the boat. We did bounce around a bit, but that is to be expected.
Once the proper time arrived, Randy positioned the boat for a spectacular view of the sunset. This was truly beautiful. He took several pictures of us and our friends.
I highly recommend this. The 90 minutes was perfect and we couldn't ask for a better guide than Randy

Seeing the dolphins, and hanging out with Kyle. She was sweet and a fun and kind captain. Please tell her that fat boys was DELICIOUS!
