This isn't just a beach ride--it's a beautiful, ethical experience with rescue horses who truly…read morelove what they do. We had an absolutely incredible experience with C Ponies, and I can't recommend them enough--especially if you're looking for something unique, meaningful, and truly unforgettable. What makes this experience so special goes far beyond just "riding horses on the beach." These are rescue horses--many of them coming from difficult or neglectful situations--and C Ponies has created something really beautiful by giving them a second chance at life. You can feel how deeply loved and well cared for these horses are. They are healthy, happy, and genuinely seem to enjoy their work. One of the most fascinating parts was learning that the water is actually healing for them. Being in the ocean supports their joints and overall wellness, so this experience isn't just fun for us--it's beneficial for them, too. That alignment made the entire experience feel even more special and ethical. Our guide, Raina, was fantastic. She had the perfect mix of humor (yes, some delightfully corny jokes), warmth, and knowledge. More importantly, you could tell she truly loves these horses and what she does. She made everyone feel comfortable, safe, and engaged the entire time. Walking the horses into the water--and even getting to experience them swimming--was surreal. Each horse had its own personality, which made it even more fun. You could tell they were relaxed, confident, and happy to be there. It didn't feel forced or transactional--it felt like a partnership between humans and animals. Living in Sarasota, it also meant a lot to support a business that is doing such meaningful work in our own SW Florida community. C Ponies is not only creating unforgettable experiences, but they are actively rescuing, rehabilitating, and giving these horses a life filled with purpose and care. If you're on the fence--book it. It's one of those rare experiences that stays with you long after it's over.

OMG! What an unforgettable experience! We had an absolute blast!…read moreThis is something I've wanted to do for years, but the timing was never quite right. Today, everything came together, and we enjoyed the most beautiful swim with the horses. Our guide, Lori, was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, personable, informative, and made the entire ride fun from start to finish. You could tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it made the experience even more special. I already can't wait to come back! The next time we're on this side of Florida, this will definitely be at the top of our must-do list.

I booked a private sunset cruise with Way More to Sea and tried calling their phone number all day…read more(at least 10 calls) and a text message to ask a question regarding the ride. I showed up to the dock at the scheduled time and nobody was there. I checked my email, and less than one hour before the cruise, they sent me an email saying that they were double booked and had to cancel the cruise. No phone call or text to let us know that it was canceled. I would urge anyone interested to go with a more trustworthy company who can answer their phone. This was one of the few things we wanted to do in the short time we were in Florida and weren't able to! I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

From the moment we boarded, the atmosphere was fun and upbeat. The music playlist was perfect for a day on the water, and the crew (Matt and JC) kept the energy going the entire trip. The highlight, of course, was the dolphins. They showed up right on cue and put on an amazing show, swimming alongside the boat and giving everyone plenty of opportunities for photos and memories. This was a fantastic experience for all ages, and we had so much fun. We will definitely be doing it again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun outing on the water!

We booked the Dolphin Racer tour today 07/03 for our whole family. The tour lasts about 1.5 to 2…read morehours. The weather started out nice, but it became very hot as the trip continued. The dolphin sightings happened in the middle and again toward the end of the trip, for a total of about 10-20 minutes. That was definitely the highlight of the experience--our kids really loved seeing the dolphins. However, between and after the sightings, there was a lot of walking on the beach under the hot sun. The walking felt long and tiring, especially for the kids, and there was no shade. During the tour, an elderly woman also started feeling unwell due to the heat, and an ambulance was called to assist her. Overall, while seeing the dolphins was a wonderful experience, I would recommend preparing for a long amount of walking and strong sun exposure, especially for families with young children or elderly guests.

He was very good at spotting the gators and other critters along the river. He had a nice commentary and useful information about the history of the area. The airboat was very loud so it was quite difficult to hear everything he said. Our guide even gae us a nice run on the river with a bit of a splash/spray as he made the turn! Definitely saw lots of gators this trip. After the trip, you are invited to visit the main shop which was also the check in area for an opportunity to hold a real life baby gator! The gator was rather soft on the belly side. Was a fun trip. The day was not too hot so it was very enjoyable.
