John and Tanner were amazing captains. They were fully engaged with all the guests and very knowledgable about the tour. We saw tons of dolphins, a bird sanctuary, and a manatee. Also found a couple of cool shells. We had a great time and would recommend to anyone.

It was great experience. Kids had a lot of fun!!! Water was cold at this time of the year, but the kids still went in and were able to see star fish, urchin, etc. Will do it again next year.

This was canceled at the last minute we were already 20 minutes away from meeting point. We understand things come up but when you're traveling 2 hours to make the trip it was very disappointing

John & Tanner were great guides. We saw lots of dolphins! Egmont Key Island is only accessible by boat. I hiked to the lighthouse and saw lots of wildlife. Collect some shells too!

What had an amazing time and for 4hrs it was money well spent. We saw plenty of dolphins and wild life. I would skip snorkeling at the rocks and do it more at the island u see bigger fish that way and find a ton of the good shells doing so! The island was so much fun and wish we could spend all day there exploring and shell hunting. Highly recommend for all ages. There was a little girl in the group on the boat and captain let her drive the boat back. Little things like that show they care and they want everyone specially little ones to have a great time and memories they won’t forget. Will definitely be going back again next time we visit Florida.

Solid value,
Besides the beauty of the destinations on this trip the guides made sure we were able interact with various sea life. Even when conditions were challenging they went above and beyond finding the right spots to explore.
The dolphins were a lil shy until the end but it made the trip into the marina more fun.

The crew was super nice and interactive. It was a nice boat ride filled with lots of dolphin sightings and two separate snorkeling locations. Exploring the island looking for turtles, the perfect shells and beautiful clear water was amazing. You get a lot for the very reasonable price. I highly recommend!!! There’s something for everyone at almost any age.

Friendly staffs. Easy to find the boat. There is a bathroom on the boat in case. Bring picnic food so you can enjoy more.

What a great experience for my family. We had never snorkeled before. And we all loved it. There was no instruction on how to snorkel. We all just had to figure it out on our own. It once we did, what a fun experience.
Amy_A, Jul 2025
This trip is nothing short of amazing. Seriously considering taking the tour again before we leave to go back home. We were able to see beautiful wildlife, the island was so much fun to explore; and the Captain and First Mate were so much fun to travel with . Everyone should make time for this tour.

We saw a momma and baby dolphin before we even left the main area! The snorkeling was fun and we had an amazing time :)
Lisa_B, Jul 2025
We really enjoyed the tour. Fun boat ride. Saw a mother and baby dolphin. Snorkeling was cool. The 90 minutes spent at Edgemont Key state park was a nice stop. We really enjoyed exploring and swimming. I thought the length of it was perfect. Highly recommend as a nice way to spend the morning.

Great trip and great crew family really enjoyed it. They delayed the trip so rain could pass by and that was great.
David_D, Jun 2025
The captain was hilarious while being very informative. He stopped any time we seen dolphins or manatees and have us plenty of time to check out the amazing beach.
Alicia_G, Jun 2025
Great trip, Captain and co-captain, very friendly, and interactive. Very nice boat ride we saw dolphins and a couple manatees. Then off to snorkeling a little murky from storms, but it was still a nice experience and then off to the island to find shells ,walk and do whatever you please I would definitely go on this trip again
JUAN_P, Jun 2025
Great experience, fun witj co workers. Saw manatee, lots of dolphins and stingrays. Recommend to all.
Katherine_G, Jun 2025
Great tour guide! Customizes the trip to ensure for the best experience! Would recommend for people all ages and also families!
Natalie_C, Jun 2025
Great experience! We saw manatees, dolphins, snokleling, beautiful beaches. My only thing is that there is a “requirement for 18-20% tip” yet I didn’t feel like there was a huge reason for it. No one went above and beyond for anything that we did. If you are going to require that, add it to the price of the excursion.
Marilyn_S, Jun 2025
Had a great time! Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Even more time for snorkeling would be great!
Deborah_J, May 2025
We had a Great time with Tom and Tanner! Awesome tour! Learned a lot and had a blast!! Great trip for families!!!
Christen_B, May 2025
Overall a fun experience! I took a group of 10 and we had a good time. We loved the snorkeling but unfortunately the snorkeling was not long enough. They take you snorkeling first then over to the beach for over an hour and unfortunately my whole group would have rather snorkeled longer or at a different location rather than at the beach since most tourists are already staying at hotels on the beach.
Cindy_O, Apr 2025
Crew was knowledgeable. Took time to share about themselves and get to know us. Informative. Willing to answer questions.
Greg_S, Apr 2025
Captain was knowledgable, tour was fun, great weather, found dolphins and sting rays. Egmont Key was full of shells and water was refreshing.
Michelle_M, Apr 2025
Excursion was canceled due to not meeting the minimum amount of participants. Cancellation was clearly communicated but not sure why I’m getting requests to leave a review for a tour I never went on.
Heather_P, Mar 2025
We were not informed that the eggmont key island was closed due to the hurricane. When booking there is not notice or indication of the island closure. 1 hour prior to our trip (1.5 hours into our 2 hr drive) we received a text advising we weren’t going to Eggmont key but rather a different name stand that we weren’t not interested in nor willing to pay $85/per person for.
The lack of honesty and transparency from this company who knowingly booked a trip they knew wasn’t going to happen was unacceptable and felt like a scam. I cancelled our trip and was refunded but that did not give us back the half day we spent in a car driving to an excursion that was never an actual option. I will NEVER use this company and would not recommend to anyone else as they clearly only care about the $ and not the customers experience.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
I am the person you yelled at on the phone that morning, and while it was difficult to experience, I’m grateful that it was me and not someone else. Despite my efforts to explain and apologize, you continued to talk over me. It’s never our intention to mislead anyone, and I did reach out to inform you about the change well in advance, just as I did with all the other guests on the tour that day. We’ve actually received several 5-star reviews for that same tour. We’re a team of positive, passionate people who take pride in what we do and aim to keep negativity at bay. Yes, we did process your refund, and we respect that you’ve decided not to use our services again.

From start to finish this was a perfect excursion. The location was marked well and easy to find. The boat was spacious and clean and the crew was friendly. We saw dolphins and had plenty of time to walk around and hunt for shells at Shell Key. We then went to another location for snorkeling and it was so much fun! Overall I highly recommend. My sons are 13 and 16 and had a blast!
