Excellent experience. Great host. Definitely recommend. Seeing all the dolphins was an added bonus. Will do again.
Thank you for the great review! We're so glad you had an excellent experience and enjoyed seeing the dolphins. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back again!
We cruised out at 6:00 and caught a beautiful sunrise, and saw dolphins both on our way to the island and on the way back to the marina. We saw so much wildlife on the island and the hour they give to explore is just about the perfect amount of time. Captain Dan and his first mate CT were funny and friendly and definitely added the experience. We loved this tour, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting Hilton Head. (We actually did it on a visit in 2022, and loved it so much we did it again!)
Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so happy you enjoyed the tour again and got to take in a beautiful sunrise, spot dolphins, and explore the island. It’s great to hear that the crew helped make the experience even more memorable. We truly appreciate the recommendation and love that you came back for round two!
This was a wonderful experience. Captain Dan and Patrick with first mate Champ (retriever) made this day one to remember. We so enjoyed walking the sand bar finding star fish - hermit crabs!!! I’d recommend this tour to anyone - especially if you have kids.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're so glad you had a memorable day with Captain Dan, Patrick, and Champ. Exploring the sandbar and finding starfish and hermit crabs sounds like such a fun experience. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again soon!
