Itinerary

Dolphin sightings are guaranteed, or your next trip is FREE! As we seek our local dolphin pod, we will navigate the scenic back bays of Orange Beach, Alabama. Our knowledgeable tour guide and captain point out the local flora and fauna. You may see osprey and their nests, herons, bald eagles, and red-tailed hawks. The Explorer allows us to get as close as safely possible to the banks and the local marine and wildlife. Because the boat only needs 16 to 18 inches of water underneath, we can sneak into creeks where few other boats can go, providing you with a truly unique and memorable experience!

Great trip for the kiddos!

The crew was very friendly. I would highly recommend this trip for those with kiddos. I feel it was geared towards kids. Not quite the sophisticated Eco tour I was envisioning. We stayed in Wolf Bay…I was hoping to see more of the shoreline and estuaries. So if you have kids, it’s a must do.

Great staff

I was a bit disappointed that we only saw 4 or 5 dolphins and they did not stay around very long. It was considered a dolphin sighting. The staff was incredible though 10 out of 10! This made it so much fun for my family.
