Great experience. Highly recommend this relaxing evening. Dinner and service were excellent. The ship was 2 floors with dining inside for the lower deck and covered dining on the top deck. About 80 diners so it wasn’t crowded.

    The staff really exemplified southern hospitality. We were out celebrating our 37th wedding anniversary and this trip did not disappoint. We chose the blackened fish and it was delicious. The service was also great. The trip was filled with several dolphin sightings and our boat Captain was interactive and fun. The sunset was beautiful and breathtaking.

    Jennifer_S, Jun 2026
    The pork tenderloin was tough and dry, but my husband’s mahi mahi was good. Dessert was excellent. Inside seating was a little hot and stuffy, but we enjoyed sitting outside after dinner.

    Wonderful

    Shareita_J, Jun 2026
    Everything was wonderful. We even got to see dolphins. Staff was friendly. My husband and I were celebrating our 10 year anniversary. We didn't let them know but I'm sure they would've given a cake or something because someone was there celebrating a birthday and they sung to them.
