Boat Tour - Captain Pablo made the experience incredible, he was funny and extremely knowledgeable about not only the dolphins but also Jekyll Island History. The dolphins were generous with their presence.

What a Peaceful Historical Ride - The trip began viewing the sites of marshland, sunshine and a peaceful boat ride. Thanks to our Captains who narrated the historical facts about Jekyll Island! Well done! Then we set out in search of Dolphins. Although we did not see dolphins, we did have a spectacular ride of beautiful sites. We did see an Alligator at the end of our ride! A reminder no swimming! I recommend taking this tour!

The best tour! - We cane with a school group. Captain Paul, Dale, and Dan were AMAZING!!! Paul kept us on track navigating the waterway. Dale and Dan were very informative with their knowledge of the sea life that was caught. They kept our group of students engaged and entertained! I would give them more than 5 stars if you had it. Definitely recommended if you are in the area!

A not to be missed experience when visiting Jekyll Island - We've been to Jekyll Island three times, the highlight each time has been the Jekyll Island Dolphin Tour. The Captain and crew have always been very knowledgeable and we've learned something new each time. We've been fortunate to see dolphins on all three trips, although we know that is not always the case. The views are always beautiful. I highly recommend this tour if you are in the area!

Engaging - This was a school field trip with eighth graders. The staff was so friendly and eager to share their knowledge with our students. They explained and discussed, and asked and answered questions. We all had an amazing time! I would highly recommend this tour for people of any age.
