Unforgettable Experience!

Amazing! Our kids are 25, 11 and 4 and it’s impossible to find an activity that appeals to everyone. Captain Nick somehow managed! We saw a pod of 250 - 300 dolphins. It was stunning and an experience that our family will never forgot. Skip the large tour boat and book with Captain Nick instead. You will not be disappointed!
Best dolphin and whale watching trip!

Captain Nick was terrific! We booked this excursion for six people. From the get go , Captain Nick was polite, courteous and made us feel at home. His boat is brand new, beautiful and has lots of power. The seats absorbed all of the shock from the water. He was knowledgeable about the water and the location of the dolphins. He winded up finding a large school of 500 plus dolphins and is was a blast! I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have an upscale, experience.
What a special gift of time, experience, the marine life, boat ride, and company. Thank you Captain Nick!!

Wow, all I can say is wow! Not really, ill say more. This was one of the most memorable trips we have ever been on! Captain Nick was awesome, very attentive and knowledgeable. His love for the animals and nature was infectious. I didn't expect to see any whales considering we went in June. I was good with just dolphins! Captain Nick went above and beyond to make sure we saw something and had a great time. Lucky we saw a Blue Whale which absolutely took our breathes away! The kids were so amazed and it was a wonderful experience to share with our family. We will definitely come back again and see what else we may see out there! Thanks Captain Nick!
1000 dolphins !
