Awesome Girls Trip Experience - The cruise was AWESOME. The crew are exceptional. It was really hot and they handed out cooling towels before we left the dock. Best part was running the dolphins with another boat. The dolphins were jumping out of the water putting on an awesome show. Definitely recommend this cruise. Thank you for an awesome memory.

The engagement. - I proposed to my girlfriend on this boat trip. Jennifer was amazing and helped put me in touch with Captain Schmidty, who was my accomplice letting me captain the boat and ask her over the intercom in front of the whole boat. He offered us a couple of tequila shots to celebrate and even called another boat to meet us when we didn’t have limes. That boat thanks to him, congratulated us by name over the intercom. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and something that me and my fiancée will never forget. The dolphins jumping around the boat, the sunset, the woman of my dreams. Made my proposal unforgettable.100000% recommended. SHE SAID YES!!!! ☺️

Wonderful experience, so glad we booked it! - We had to reschedule because of weather, but it was easy and painless to do so. Great booth staff. Captain Lynn, Cari, and Jennifer were great! They were all friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable. We saw dolphins immediately and viewing continued for the rest of the tour. We probably just got lucky, but it was incredible. I would book again with these guys. Great value and experience!
