Had so much fun on this...

Had so much fun on this boat experience! Avery was amazing and so helpful with giving recommendations on places to go and see during our time here in St Petes! Such a cute and fun time seeing the dolphins and collecting such beautiful shells! Would recommend to anyone who’s looking for something fun and relaxing to do! Thank you Avery and Bob. Also congrats to Avery for getting her Captains license, so cool. (:

It was a fun experience...

It was a fun experience all three captains with us today were personable and entertaining. My youngest loved getting new shells and seeing manatees.

It was just ok.

The boat ride was nice, the guys were great. The shells we found we could have found on any beach everyday, nothing special or very big. Very disappointing.

Unfortunately I did not...

Unfortunately I did not get to go on this excursion because I was the only person who booked the time slot for that day. However, they were kind enough to call me ahead of time and offer me a full refund or an upgraded to the sunset cruise for the same night. I will leave a seperate review for the sunset cruise. Im a huge shelling and shark tooth person so im sad I didn't get to go. But when I experienced the sunset cruise it was still with the trip.

Great experience !

Me and my boyfriend loved this experience!! We weren’t really hopeful on seeing any dolphins but we got super lucky and spotted a few! The crew was super nice and informative! They offer water, snorkeling gear and a zip lock bag to collect sea shells from Shell island! I really loved that and we found so many cool shells! Definitely worth 60$ and would definitely do this again!
