Pet friendly. So laid back and relaxing. Kate was awesome. Unless you really want your money going to commercial, superficial charters, this is the place. We were so glad we picked this place. This small business cares about their workplace, and we care about those people. Give Kate a call and you won’t be disappoIntend. Thx Kate

Great sunset cruise with observant captain! We spotted dolphins and she took time to idle and allow us to enjoy and get lots of pictures. Sunset was beautiful and captain also took pictures of our group.

    Our family of six, including two teenage girls and two grandparents, very much enjoyed the private cruise where we spotted at least 8 dolphins and saw an incredible sunset. Captain Kate was very knowledgeable about the area and did a great job navigating the waters.

    Sunset Cruise!

    Captain Kate took is on a sunset cruise where we were able to see dolphins, relax, and enjoy the beautiful sunset! She let my 7 year old daughter help “drive” the boat, which my daughter absolutely loved. We had a great time and would highly recommend!

    A delightful two-hour tour!

    Joanne_M, Feb 2025
    The four of us enjoyed our sunset cruise with Captain Kate very much. Kate was so accommodating and quite capable of maneuvering her boat through the channel and out to the open gulf just in time to see the sun set, and a few dolphins along the way. She even stopped at the marina where we ordered margaritas to go for the rest of our journey. It was a delightful two hours.

    Wasn't perfect but it was better!!!

    Although the weather was a bit ehh, Kate was amazing!!! She was very knowledgeable to the history of the area we were in. We did end up seeing Dolphins!! We traveled from MN so hurricane damage was definitely put into perspective for us. It was definitely educational! At the end of our "2 hour tour" we unfortunately did not get a sun set, but we got a cool hazy horizon. You could not tell where the water ended and sky began. Which was very cool and intriguing to our group. This is what most of our pictures were taken tying to capture this moment just right! Kate even joined in on capturing this ire yet inquisitive site mother nature gave us! Thank you Kate for an amazing time!

    I'm glad your group enjoyed the charter, despite the weather! I did offer to reschedule or refund your group when we realized the weather was not going to be ideal.

    Breathtaking sunset

    Loved the comfort of a nice private boat. Captain Kate is excellent taking us all the way into the bay, trying her best to show as many birds and Dolphins (but unfortunately couldn’t spot dolphins). Our grandkids loved the boat ride!

    Great for couples!!!!

    We had a great trip on the Dolphin Sunset Cruise, the boat ride was relaxing with Captain Kate and we were able to see a few dolphins along the way. The sunset was amazing on the boat. Highly recommend for your small group.

    Captain Kate is the best....

    Captain Kate is the best. Very capable captain with great knowledge about the area and the best places to go

    Fabulous captain and sunset cruise.

    Sandra_R, Mar 2022
    Six of us went on a private sunset cruise. Captain Kate was kind, funny , and helpful. We saw dolphins. Yachts and party boats passing. We brought cocktails and charcuterie board. Captain Kate had ice and water for us. It was beautiful two hour sunset cruise. Worth the $$. And we will be using her again. She is fabulous.

    Eventful evening.

    Family Fun

    Dena, Mar 2021
    We absolutely enjoyed our sunset dolphin cruise last week. We celebrated a family birthday and had a blast spotting dolphins and watching them play. The Tiny Tiki pontoon was the perfect place to be while admiring the beautiful sunset. I highly recommend this tour and will personally return with more groups in the future.
