Great fun
Was an amazing experience. We loved it. Saw so many dolphins and was a great party on the boat. Sunset didn’t cooperate but was good anyway

Exceeded expectations!
Tyler and Samantha were phenomenal hosts! The dolphin activity was tremendous and the sunset was breathtaking! I looked at many options before selecting Soundside Cruiser. I chose them for the price AND they were the only ones I found that were out for 2 hours, vs 1.5 hrs. I highly recommend these guys!

Peaceful early evening boat ride. Enjoyable !.
It was a wonderful boat ride. Perfect timing for the sunset cruise and the dolphins really showed up. It was a nice amount of people on board but not overbooked. The captain seemed very experienced and did a wonderful job navigating the boat around the dolphins so that all those on board could enjoy the experience. The crew seem to enjoy what they do, so it was a very enjoyable evening, I definitely recommend it.

10/10 must go
Great experience. They took us out and took us to the dolphins then to watch the sun set in the gulf. We got the sunset and the dolphin tour for half the price the other tours charge just for the dolphin tour. 10/10 will definitely go again.
