Between 50 and 70 dolphins reside together in our bay, and by paying close attention to them over the years, we have named many of them.

Dolphin sightings are guaranteed, or you next trip is free!

Fun Dolphin Cruise - Saw lots of dolphins and learned a lot about the pods in the area. Seeing them play was really neat! Both of our kids are under 8 and had to wear life jackets, which is an AL law. Just made for an even hotter ride! The crew made sure they had cooling towels and a mist fan to make it more bearable. Would do again, but maybe earlier in the day?

Dolphin Tour! - It was fun and we got to see Dolphins but I don’t believe we really got the views that other people get (with other companies). I’ve been seeing pictures of dolphins flopping up and out of the water! I’ve also noticed that we may have paid more than what some of those other companies charge! However, my family had fun! The crew was more into acting and joking than showing dolphins.
