Glad we did this!

Great experience. Captain and first mate were courteous, consummate hosts, and ensured everyone had a good experience. The cold sodas, waters, and alcoholic beverages were a plus. They made sure we slowed down anytime someone spotted a dolphin. The trip to Sanibel island is a must, with it’s iconic light tower and the resident bottle nose dolphins. The last part of the trip is the sunset viewing which was lovely.

Thank you for this great reciew!

Enjoyable trip!

Very good excursion! Crew and captain were very safety conscious so our trip was shortened due to weather. They tried to let us rebook which was a great accommodation. Would recommend!
