Would do again

Captains Deacon and Dan were awesome! Lots of dolphins and they even got them to follow the boat and jump out of the water for us! Sunset was beautiful and the ride was so relaxing. Would 100% go out with them again!

Even before the cruise...

Even before the cruise started we were so impressed. The weather was rainy and we got text updates throughout the day updating us on any weather issues or cancelations. When we got there everyone was super friendly and when the cruise started the captain gave us some fun facts about the area and local wildlife. We had a perfect evening and saw a beautiful sunset at Sanibel. Highly recommend!
