Great afternoon on the water!

Went with a group of 6 for this great 90 minute boat ride and we all really enjoyed it! Capt Bob was super friendly and a great guide! He was able to give us a nice fun (little bouncy, but we liked that!) ride down to Harbour Town and we definitely spotted quite a few dolphins along the way. It is an open boat with basically no shade so keep that in mind when booking! Sunscreen and water are a must! And don’t forget to tip your captain! Thanks again Capt Bob!

John provided a complete tour of the intercoastal area. November was a great time to do this as the water traffic was minimal offering a calm and serene experience. Seeing several dolphins was of course the highlight, especially 2 that came just a few feet from our boat.

John was a good guide and was knowledgeable about the area. Unfortunately, we only saw a few dolphins in the distance and only briefly as well, but it was still an enjoyable day on the water with the wonderful weather.

John was an excellent guide. He had a lot of knowledge of the area. When we spotted dolphins, he took us right up close to see them.
