This time we were looking for grouper, and Billy took us to several different spots where they were biting. We caught our limit on the large Gag grouper and have 10-plus lbs of delicious fish.

I was very pleased with how well Captain Randy communicated and provided additional insight. Upon closer to the time for our day I had a follow up conversation with Cassie who provided even more information that brought comfort not only to me but my guests as well. They provided a cooler with ice and water as well as numerous floats and shelling bags. The whole experience was relaxing and refreshing. Our captain for the day was Jordan and she was Spectacular with keeping us on time and showing us around. We did a 4 hour boat tour but were able to have time on the slide and visit two islands. Truly an unforgettable experience for families and groups alike. 10/10 will be booking again for a longer time. Thank you for providing a wonderful experience.

We brought our food and drinks and there was enough storage on the boat for all of our stuff. Our captain navigated us well and took us to the best spots to see dolphins and a nice quiet private beach. Then he showed us the perfect spot to stop and take a ride on the slide. The whole process was seamless and the experience was great. I highly suggest you book with them!

Very disappointed with our experience…read more We booked a 4:30 PM dolphin boat tour for four people and were really looking forward to it. Around 11 AM, we received a call letting us know that we were currently the only four people booked and that they were going to see if guests from the 2 PM tour could join us. At no point were we told that our tour might be canceled. By 2:30 PM, we still had not heard anything, so we had to call them ourselves to confirm whether the 4:30 tour was still happening. That's when we were told they had decided it was not financially viable to run the tour with just the four of us and had canceled it. We were extremely disappointed that they canceled our tour at the last minute without proactively notifying us. We had planned our entire day around this experience and were left having to reach out ourselves to find out that it was no longer happening. We completely understand that businesses have to make decisions based on demand, but the communication and customer service were disappointing. If a tour is going to be canceled, customers should be notified as soon as that decision is made rather than having to call and find out themselves shortly before the scheduled departure. Unfortunately, this experience left us very disappointed and we would not book again.
