I never knew there were this many dolphins in New Jersey! It was mind boggling to me how many we saw. I thought maybe by chance we might see some but no we say at least 10-12 probably more honestly it was hard to keep track. They were showing off too... It was really nice boat tour right off shore near Wildwood where we saw the dolphins followed by a nice trip around the tip of the Cape around the famous light house. The narrator was pretty informative as well. I enjoyed it...
It was a nice trip. The breeze, the scenery was nice. We got to see plenty of dolphins Enjoyed all the sights along the way. The history provided was great
The crew was excellent - real marine life enthusiasts and super knowledgeable. We saw a lot of dolphins, and the captain's information about the wildlife and points of interest was great!
This was so much fun and very informative! We saw lots of dolphins and got cool videos! Everyone enjoyed it!!!
The views were beautiful. The room was one of the cleanest rooms I've been in and there is not many of them. Weather was rainy and cloudy but it was still a wonderful time!
I would have given this a 4 because the boat ride was nice on the water, the captain was great, navigating the ship talking about the dolphins and sounded enthusiastic. However, what decreased my rating was that it was overly crowded, no place I could find a seat and no one went out of their way to offer a small seated area, just awkward, was unbelievably charged $3 for tap water?? But was later reimbursed after I said something to another guy behind the counter, and it was chilly during the evening but other than that, we saw dolphins so that’s nice.
Awesome team went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable in choppy waters… and that we got to see plenty of dolphins.
Great way to start the day! We did the 10:00am. Smooth run operation with great staff from the minute you pull into parking lot. We had a great tour with some commentary of local history, then we saw lots of dolphins. Boat was very stable, offered drinks and snacks for purchase. Free coffee and danish that day was a nice touch. It was wonderful to get an outside tour from the water that showed us places we later ventured to, like sunset beach. Worth the price. Highly recommend!
Our family took the Dolphin Watch tour today. The boat was clean with plenty of places to sit, both inside and outside. The bathrooms were also clean. It was obvious that the crew takes care of the boat. The highlight of our trip were the dolphins. I was amazed at how many pods of them surrounded the boat. The captain stopped when the dolphins appeared and allowed time for everyone to watch them play.
We went on the Cape May whale watcher as a family to see dolphins. We saw a group of very active dolphins jumping out of the water. It was really amazing to see. The captain was very informative and we had a great time on our two hour tour.
