My husband and I booked the sunset cruise to help celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary. The catamaran was nice and clean. The staff was excellent. Super friendly and very helpful. The weather was wonderful and we were super lucky to see a ton of dolphins! The drinks were good and not too overpriced. We enjoyed the music, the sailing, and the beautiful sunset. Would definitely come again.

Richard, thank you so much for joining us. We are happy to hear you had a great cruise. We hope to see you again soon.
It’s a delightful cruise- quiet and fun. Saw a few dolphins and a nice sunset. Since there were no children aboard, it was very peaceful.

Charlotte, we are so glad you enjoyed your cruise with us. The Sunset Sailing is really the perfect relaxing adult cruise. We hope you can join us again soon.
Fun sunset cruise. Reserved tables. Saw several dolphins. Very comfortable and pleasant time of the day. Beautiful sunset pictures. Highly recommend if you are traveling w/o children. Tables have menu’s for snacks and drinks at reasonable prices.

Paul, thank you for joining us. We are happy to hear you had a great cruise. We hope to have you join us again soon.
This was the highlight of my family vacation. Ladies can take their purse. I don't recommend it for small children (well mannered 5 y/o and up), just imo. It was beautiful and Captain Ray and his crew was great!

Miki, we are so glad you enjoyed your Adults Only Sunset Sailing Cruise with us. We hope to have you join us again soon.
I was expecting a two hour sail. We were under sail for 15 mins and spent the rest of the time motoring around looking for dolphins. Had I known this was a dolphin trip I would not have booked it.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hi, Martin we are sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your experience. The Sunset Sail does not specifically go out looking for dolphins, though many are often delighted and pleased when they grace us with their presence. We did have many 5 star reviews for the same cruise. I’m truly sorry it did have the same effect for you.
They were very sweet and kind. Did something special for my Grandmother. Sunset was beautiful and was able to see some dolphin. Overall 10/10 experience.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Grant, Thank you for such a thoughtful review! It was an honor to be a small part of celebrating your grandmother, and we’re so happy we could make her visit a little more special. There’s nothing quite like a Sunset Sail with dolphins along the way, and we’re delighted you were able to experience both. Your kind words mean so much to our crew, and we truly appreciate you choosing Cetacean Cruises. We look forward to welcoming you aboard again!
Awesome all around! Highly recommended!! Great drinks, fun music, attentive staff who made the experience very enjoyable!

Beautiful sunset and even saw some dolphins playing! Captain J and safe were awesome! Just the right amount of people with tables to sit and enjoy the sunset with your friends and family.

Detra, thank you for joining us. We are happy to hear Captain Jonny and crew took great care of you. We hope to have you join us again soon.
Great crew. Good service. No “fighting” over spots on the boat as they reserve areas for your party. Beautiful sunset. Not a lot of dolphin sightings if that is what you are looking to do.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Jamie, thank you for joining us. We are so glad to hear you had a wonderful time. We hope you can join us again soon.
This is a very relaxing tour. Unfortunately we didn’t see any dolphins. The crew was very friendly and entertaining.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Hi, Richard. We are glad you enjoyed your cruise. We are you enjoyed your time with the crew. Come back and visit with us again soon.
The only down part of the entire cruise was that we didn’t go into the gulf. We stayed in Wolf Bay the entire time. Other than that, the captain and crew were awesome. Top notch service all the way around.

James, we are happy to hear you enjoyed your cruise. We hope you can join us again soon.
Amazing! The sunset cruise was so much more than I expected. The boat was spacious enough to move around and the views were terrific. Captain Ray and his crew were top notch. They really seemed to enjoy what they were doing and made it even better. There were snacks and drinks but who had time for that. Dolphins, sunset, and views. We went for our anniversary but it is a cruise worth going often.
Response from Host, Jun 2026

Elizabeth, thank you for joining us. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your cruise. Come back and visit with us soon.
The sailing and the sailboat were amazing. Unfortunately we saw dolphins mating and one of the crew went on and on about how the males were cornering the female and pointing out the male's penis. It became very awkward and uncomfortable. It was insensitive to anyone who is an assault victim and inappropriate for a family activity. My adult daughter brought it up to me later that night and we both felt the same way about it. Without that, we would have had a great time.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you Denise for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the sailing experience and the sailboat itself. Our Sunset Sailing cruise is a 13+ experience, and as part of an educational wildlife tour, our crew does discuss natural dolphin behavior that guests may witness in the wild. While we understand this topic may not be comfortable for everyone, the commentary was intended to explain observed animal behavior in an educational setting. We do appreciate your perspective and will continue encouraging our crew to present information professionally and respectfully.
Sit with strangers! Make new friends! The captain and crew were fun and attentive! We had such a great time!

Captain and Crew was very knowledgeable about the boat, weather, detailed instructions about safety. Spotted lots of dolphins. The sunset was a bit blocked by the sun, but the dolphins made up for it! Highly recommend this boat. The drinks were top notch.
