Beautiful wildlife opportunity! Captain Jessi and Paul were extremely knowledgeable, funny, kind, and friendly! - This experience was great! We went out for the sunset tour. Unfortunately, it rained and was cloudy but we still saw dolphins and manatees, lots of water birds and such. The crew came prepared with ponchos, water, and hydration drinks for passengers to enjoy. Can’t wait to do it again!

Thanks for a great day on the water! - Loved seeing the dolphins interact with us on the back of the boat! Throw in a couple of manatees and a nice breeze. What else can you ask for?

Fun for all and a great time in the estuary - The crew was ecstatic about being on the water since Milton roared through. Captain Jessie was knowledgeable and we felt safe. 1st mate Bill?, was also on his game. Saw the wildlife and scenery. Highly recommended. Dolphins in the wake for miles, a real treat

Awesome trip - Captain Jess and 1st mate Kevin were so much fun and big thanks to Kevin for rescuing my Daytona beach baseball cap when it blew off in the the river. Got to see dolphins 🐬 running the boat and manatees making out . Sunset was very pretty . We got around 2hrs on the boat and would definately go again with the other grand kids . They would love the different wildlife.

Great people, great trip - This was such an amazing trip. Captain Jessie and Kevin were warm, friendly and informative. We saw manatees and dolphins as well as local birds. Hearing the history of the places we saw was great and gave a wonderful context. I can't recommend this trip enough.

Great river cruise, I could have stayed longer! - Capt Danny, Paul & Kevin were all good entertainers, plus knowledgable. It was a lovely river ride even as a local. We saw manatees, dolphins & other. Just great being outside, on the water with a breeze and bimini top for shade! Highly recommend.

Wonderful 2 hours spent on the water and lots of sea life! - We did the public 2 hour trip in the morning and had a wonderful time. Lots of space on the boat in and out of the shade. Really nice crew - good balance of sharing local knowledge and making it interesting. We saw lots of manatees - we stayed by a large group for 20 minutes and also caught a few dolphins including a couple in the boat wake. Crew provide free water and rehydration drinks on board and boat is also wheelchair friendly. Highly recommend

Wildlife Boat Tour - So glad our local CT news program did a series on New Smyrna Beach and recommended this tour. Captain Jim and first mate Paul were very knowledgeable and entertaining. We saw plenty of manatee and birdlife, but hurricane Helena scared the dolphins to stay safe. Very enjoyable day to spend on the boat tour!

Good Time! - Captain Jim and Paul were great. We didn’t get to see any dolphins, which was disappointing but…we did see a bunch of manatees! Too bad the impending weather had the animals spooked so we didn’t get to see much. But the boat ride was fun😀
