Capt Carey = the GOAT

From start to finish our tour was top notch. Captain Carey took great care of us. He was knowledgeable, pleasant and just fun to be around. He was so patient with our curious 11 year old. He answered every question fully and thoroughly. The dolphins in the area seem to know him well. We got to see quite a few showing off in the wake of his boat. Would highly recommend this tour and captain Carey to everyone. Probably the highlight of our trip.

Fun for the whole family

Wonderful fun filled day for the family. Captain Karie is fun and knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. He also is able to draw the dolphin in to play. We had dolphins following our boat for about 10-12 mins with lots of jumps and entertainment. Captain Karie also involved the kids letting them drive and teaching them how to steer the boat. The boat is easy to get on and off but requires a big step down/up so some assistance maybe required for younger kids.

Lifelong Memories Built Here

If you want a guaranteed dolphin tour this is your charter! He is determined to get the dolphins to play in his boat wake. My family and I internally gave up, but he came through on his promise and boy was it a highlight. Not only did this make it one of the most memorable experiences for my three children, but also for my parents. My parents couldn't stop raving about how unforgettable and memorable the experience was - one of the best things they have ever done on vacation. My children can't stop talking about how they saw dolphins up close - like they were smiling at us. Truly spectacular. Also, he took us to a sand bar where we found cool seashells, touched live hermit crabs, and saw a baby hammerhead shark! So cool! Not to mention how knowledge the captain is about the ocean and wildlife in the area. We loved learning about the area from him. So much fun, highly recommend!!

Awesome!

Captain Karie was great with the children. We saw dolphins within the first few minutes and he called them to the boat so they could jump through the wake of the boat. Highly recommend this experience. Thank you Captain Karie we had a great time!

Dolphins dancing in the wake

Captain Karie is the best! This was our second time doing the dolphin tour with him. He always finds the dolphins and gets them dancing in the boat wake. I highly recommend him and his tours! Thanks for another great day on the water, Karie
