Itinerary
Baywatch Dolphin Tours has been operating out of Galveston Harbor for over a decade. Our goal is to offer affordable fun for all ages on our 45-minute Dolphin watching excursion. We’re located at Pier 21 in front of Harbor House Hotel. Just two blocks from the historic Strand District in downtown Galveston. We have four vessels in our fleet that were built with Dolphin Tours, Burials at Sea, and private events in mind. We are now offering enclosed and heated tours, with a 360° view for the ideal dolphin watching experience.

Traveler reviews
Great experience!
We had a great time on our recent dolphin tour with Baywatch tours. Captain Ken was amazing and we really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you!
Fun and memorable time on the bay!
Captain Adam was great with our son from the start. Very welcoming when we boarded, excellent at finding dolphins and balancing views from left and right side of the boat. Highly recommend.
Good experience, just...
Good experience, just wish the speaker was louder. We couldn't hear everything the captain was saying during the tour. But the dolphins were wonderful and everything we saw.
Amazing!
My first ever ocean boat ride was amazing! Got to see so many dolphins and ships and the pilot of the boat was phenomenal!!! Would recommend highly!
Amazing, wonderful, and great
My kids enjoyed this dolphin adventure from the moment our tour guide asked, 'Where are you from?' The dolphins cruise was a blast. The tour guide took his time to go around, back and forth so that everyone got to see the difference dolphins swimming around. He knew their names and story. At all times my family felt very safe and he even let the kids ride the boat if they want.
