So many dolphins!

It was so cool! There were so many dolphins just playing, families, babies, it was like a movie. The scenery is beautiful, the staff were very nice and helpful! The captain was informative and seemed very chill. The lighthouses were beautiful to see and the islands were as well! Well worth it, and it's not expensive! My two daughters loved it as well! Great picture opportunities!
