- Choose from a range of start times to suit your schedule
- Stay fueled with included snacks and beverages

Great experience. Captain Jack and our guide, Bree, were awesome. It was a beautiful calm day on the water. We found a large pod of dolphin with minutes of leaving the dock. we also saw spotted Eagle rays as we were boarding and a few sea turtles. Both Jack and Bree provided commentary and color to the experience. i would recommend this tour and come again. Debbie and Shane

A fun experience for the family. Saw many dolphins and some babies. We also saw turtles as the raft takes off by a popular turtles cleaning station. We enjoyed it.

Overall it is a good experience. they told you to be there 30 mins ahead of time. We went there earlier and it felt a bit wasted of time while waiting.
The search for dolphins was good and fun. Jake and Nicole were good. I wish the ending was more with dolphins instead of seeing other things.
I also felt it ended a bit earlier than schedule time.

My family and I had an amazing experience on the Eco Raft dolphin tour! Even brought our three year old 🥰 We saw so many dolphins….it was absolutely incredible and far exceeded our expectations. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable and did a wonderful job sharing educational information about the marine life and the local environment throughout the tour. We also really appreciated the snacks and drinks they provided, which were a thoughtful touch. It was the perfect mix of adventure, learning, and relaxation. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!

Captain Zack and deckhand Cy were amazing!!! They were knowledgeable, kind, funny and my kids loved them!!! We booked this activity last minute and we do not regret it!! So much fun, saw tons of dolphins and even cleaned up some trash in the ocean!! If I could give 100 stars I would!

Outstanding trip: we saw late-season humpbacks (female, offspring, two trailing males) plus a dolphin escort, in addition to the spinner dolphins more usually seen this time of year (early to mid-May). The pilot and assistant were knowledgeable about these mammals and their behaviors, and knew where to look for them. And the assistant dispensed snacks and beverages besides--much appreciated!
