Great Family Experience - This was a great experience for me and my 3 kiddos ages 14 to 4. Captain Z made it even more memorable! Highly recommended to any single dads looking for something fun to do with your kids.

Exciting family friendly adventure! - Friendly staff. Boat had shade which was a huge relief because it was hot outside! We got to see a ton of dolphins and got a tour of the area on sea. I definitely recommend for all ages!

Fun, informative and a great time. - We got to see several dolphins, and tour Captain was excellent. I have lived in Southeast Texas for 14 years and I wish I would have known about the dolphin tours sooner.

Highly recommend!! - This was a nice tour to go on and the covered pontoon boat was great. Saw a lot of dolphins and the captain said to take a video of them and then take screenshots of the video for dolphin pictures. This worked very well. It was nice he let the kids drive the boat too as I know they enjoyed that.

Awesome Boat tour to see dolphins! - The tour was amazing! We were able to see many dolphins and their babies! The operators were fun and informative about many of the ships in the bay and their historical data too! My daughter was even given an opportunity to help steer the boat with the operator!

Great! - It was a short and sweet tour...we saw a bunch of dolphins! The only thing I would have liked was it to be a little longer. The guide was great and all the workers were very friendly.

Dolphins - We had a very nice tour on the Baywatch. We saw a lot of dolphins and other water birds. Our captain was friendly and interesting. He explained the ships on the water and a little of the bay history. They offered cold drinks for sale. Very enjoyable.
