Well worth it

It was a fun experience getting to see the dolphins in the flesh, in their natural habitat and not in an aquarium. The whole operation was professionally run, from getting to the parking lot, all the way through going back there after the tour. You could also tell how they were proud of and cared about the Cape May community and history.

Wonderful evening experience

Took the sunset dolphin watching cruise and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The ship's captain was easy to hear and shared a lot of insightful information about Cape May and dolphins in general. We saw three groups of dolphins on our trip. Ship was spacious and comfortable. Staff was attentive. Our tour included pizza and hot dogs, with a cash bar for drinks and additional snacks. They had plenty of pizza to the point where they were encouraging people to take home the leftovers. Would definitely recommend and take this trip again.

I would recommend this tour!

Saw plenty of dolphins along the way. They gave some history of places along the way and educated us on the dolphins as well as initiatives to keep them safe.

Please do yourself a favor and enjoy this trip

The experience on this trip was amazing. From the moment we boarded the ship it was just a pleasant experience. The captain of the ship was very informative and made sure to point out wildlife along the way out to the ocean and local information. Once out into the ocean, we saw an amazing amount of dolphins. The captain offered so much information on the dolphins as well. The kids were so happy to see all the dolphins swimming by. The trip back along the beaches and historic Cape May was gorgeous. I could not recommend this trip enough to anyone.

So many dolphins I was surprised!

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...
