    Review summary

    Excellent
    3.2K reviews•Google Maps

    Captain McKenzie, Captain Charlie, and Mike form an exceptional crew that consistently delivers memorable experiences on the water. Reviewers rave about their perfect blend of knowledge and humor, with these guides clearly passionate about marine life and the local area. They're frequently praised for being engaging, funny, and genuinely caring about giving everyone a great time. The small group sizes create an intimate atmosphere, and guests love that the captains work hard to ensure dolphin sightings rather than just hoping for the best. The Blue Angels tours are a standout offering, with the crew's expertise helping guests capture amazing photos of the formations while positioned at prime viewing spots. Beyond the jets, people regularly spot dolphins, sharks, sea turtles, and jellyfish. Several reviewers mention the educational component, with one tour even featuring a marine biologist. The sunset cruises and happy hour trips also get high marks. Even four-legged passengers receive special attention, according to one pet owner who appreciated the dog-friendly approach. Multiple guests already plan to make this an annual tradition.

    What a fun evening we had on our sunset dolphin cruise! Mike & Kenzie are fantastic! It was a fun, casual ride! We saw a lot of dolfins and some local sights. The boat is comfortable with cushioned seating for everyone and shade! We will be back! We highly recommend this tour!!!
