Great trip, mellow vibe, close by. - Lots of wildlife, including dolphins, manatees, jumping fish and birds. Captain and crew know the area well, including history. They coaxed dolphins to surf the boat wake. Great trip, mellow vibe, incredible sunset. Great value.

Excellent time on the water! - Captain Jessie did a sensational job. We saw all kinds of wildlife (dolphins, manatees, birds, etc.). Even in the heat of the day, there was plenty to see. Just don't let the unassuming frontage dissuade you!
