A highlight of our vacation. Wonderful crew, sights. The owner gave us a golf cart ride to and from which made it so easy for us older folks.
Our tour guide was the best! She was very informative and made sure everyone was comfortable. Definitely recommend!
Capt Carly was easy going and knowledgeable aboult the area.. She offered cold soda or water. We didn't see any manatees but we did see a dolphin, some pelicans and other birds. Approximately 40% of the boat was shaded. Sunscreen and a hat are necessary.
Fun boat ride..Captain Dan was friendly and informative..Didn’t see any dolphins, but no big deal as we’ve seen them before..
This was a great tour! Dan was very knowledgeable, and we were able to see various birds as well as manatee and dolphins! Would definitely recommend.
It was amazing. Our guide (Dan) was very knowledgeable and personable. He taught us a lot we did not know and brought us to several areas to see dolphins and manatees. We were even able to see the dolphins having a little fun. A young one was throwing a stick around and chasing it. And they were even jumping next to the boat in the boat wake. We were lucky enough to be the only two people on our boat so we were treated to a very personalized experience. It was well worth every dollar. We highly recommend the experience!
The trip was canceled because not enough people
Captain Devon was cocky, talking to a bird that we did not care about. Did not talk about the eco system. Did not see any dolphins. Not a good experience and complained about the other companies. Would not recommend
Dan was excellent and very knowledgeable about the area. We learned lots about different wildlife as well as history of different homes on the water.
Capt. Dan was very knowledgeable about the area. And what had happened with the hurricane, we got to see dolphins and manatees and provided cold drinks. The ship was clean and had good music playing. We would book again if we came back to fort Meyer's beach.
Great experience during our trip to fort myers
Perfect Day with outstanding Captain Deacon.
The captain took the boat out even though the weather report clearly showed lightning and thunder starting at about the same time we were due to leave. We had to rush back to shore because it was lightning out and very j safe. We had about half the excursion. When I requested a 50% refund I was declined. Instead I was given 25% back. We paid for 10’peoe and our cost was $650. That’s a tremendous amount to pay for half a trip and being in harms way.
We had a great time with Captain Dan! Very easy going and great with the kids. Our trip was off to a slow start in seeing wildlife but Capt was able to pull off a memorable dolphin sighting and got one of the babies to “hitch a ride” with us! So cool! All in all, a great day on the water & even if you don’t get to see a to. If wildlife, you will see some STUNNING real estate! 😍
It was fabulous! Deacon was a delight. We saw lots of dolphins and enjoyed Deacon’s music selections and information about the area. It was a gift for my 85 year old best friend and she had no problem getting on and off and walking around the boat.
The boat ride itself was very enjoyable, and the views were awesome. We saw plenty of dolphins; the price was definitely worth it. Watching a mama and baby dolphin play was the highlight! And we got to see some iguanas on the shores too! The captain was knowledgeable and lighthearted and made the ride even better. Overall, it was a great family experience.
My son and I took the day cruise to see dolphins and manatees. We had Captain Dan and he told us all about Bird Island, the dolphins and manatees. We learned about the mangroves and Hurricane Ian as well. We had a great tour and learned so much about the sea life and the area around Fort Myers Beach! It was wonderful!
This was a great experience! It was fun and safe for my 2, 3, and 5 year old. The guide was knowledgeable about the area and safe around the dolphins and manatees. I would definitely recommend this for other families!
Captain Dan was great! We immediately saw dolphins and manatees!! Super fun activity to do with friends or family!
It was fantastic! Gary @ Moss Marina too my grandkids & myself to the beach. We were loaded with chairs & umbrella. Super nice. Then for our Dolphin experience we had Captain Dan, he was very knowledgeable & he took us to see the dolphins. Amazing experience as my grandson said his dream came true. Captain Dan took some pics of my grandkids & I in a very special moments. Thank you so much! We will return!
The experience was so fun 🫶🏻 and an amazing view. The captain’s were so nice.I recommend this experience 100%
The captain of the vote was extremely nice and a wealth of knowledge. We were able to see I am dolphin, manatee stingray, and some of them got to see a bullnose shark. We had a great time.
I wasn’t comfortable riding on a boat but wanted to give an amazing experience to my kids and their friends and Captain Dan reassured it would be great and it was nothing short of that!! We saw dolphins and a manatee within the first 10 mins!! It was a great family experience and he was so knowledgeable of the wildlife and the history of the area!!
We had a great time. Carly was patient and sweet with our daughter and gave us a lot of interesting information. We would go again, and would recommend to everyone to go.we also loved seeing the dolphins!
We really enjoyed this cruise! Parking was easy and close to the boat slip. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Good value, great scenery!
This was a great excursion to do with our family. We had a group of 12 and despite the heat, it was still a great time!
We had such a great time! While it is understood that the guides cannot guarantee that we see the wild animals, on this particular tour we got to watch 5-6 dolphins playing near our boat! What a wonderful experience!
Great experience Saw tons of dolphins They came right up to the boat for about 45 minutes Gave us a show We also saw manatees Tour guides were really great
Lots a room you can walk around the boat. It’s nice and clean the Captain and first mate are well knowledged of the area we seen dolphins and manatees which was really cool. It can be hot if they’re not going fast but it was probably what 95 100° when we went, but when the boat is moving faster. There’s a beautiful breeze. It’s cool you down the water is not deep. It looks really nice. Really friendly place. Everybody was really courteous. Would do it again.
Dan and Deacon did an awesome job. They made our ride very pleasurable. Their knowledge and experience is amazing.
It was great!!! Seen a lot really enjoyed! The captain was the greatest. Music great. Family trip was great for last day.
Great experience! We were the only ones on the boat. Saw two dolphins and a family of manatees!
My family had a great time. We saw manatees and Dolphins. Even a mother goose and her babies.!
Captain Dan and Deacon were very knowledgeable and full of one liners. Made the cruise fun for adults and little ones. They even got the dolphins to interact with the boat. Got lots of great photos! Thanks again!
Captain Deacon was fabulous, as was the boat, and we had a wonderful experience! Saw many dolphins and also Manatee. Water and soft drinks also included which was very nice!
Dan was a great Captain, he was very knowledgeable about the area and the tour making sure we saw dolphins and manatee. My kids loved it too, it was a great experience. Well worth a look.
May not see dolphins … maybe not a great sunset … but you will enjoy the ride and might learn something about the area. Just 90 minutes of chill time to relax!
Saw dolphins, manatees, & birds. Fun!🤩 Very knowledgeable about Fort Myers, Hurricane Ian 🌀 and the community!
Nice relaxing ride. Saw some dolphins and Sanibel lighthouse. Guides were great.
Captain Dan is such a wonderful guy. I'm in a electric wheelchair and he knew how to handle me very well. He also treated me with respect even with my service dog. He is very knowledgeable and very very funny. All I can say is that you definitely want to be on his boat. I will be returning ang in the winter and I plan to book with him again.
Was a fun and relaxing adventure. The captain was very friendly and informative of the area. If looking for a chance to be on the water and relax for a couple of hours, this excursion is for you.
Dan was excellant knowing exactly where to look for dolphins and manatees! We also saw some birds as well and he gave a lot of information about all the animals we saw. We also got some history of the beach and tips on where to eat. Pop and water were provided and this tour took place only in the bay areas so the water was not choppy. Tour was only an hour and 30 min which was the perfect amount of time so you still have the rest of the day!
We had an incredible time. We saw lots of dolphins and some manatees. Captain Dan was knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend this tour.
The captain was very knowledgeable about wildlife/fauna and the history of the area. He was friendly and helpful, as well.
We were hoping to see Manatee and we did! We also got to see dolphins and other wildlife so that was a bonus!
Great guide, left on time, soft drinks and water provided, saw some fun dolphins and manatees and eagle manta rays along with some birds
We had a lot of fun, the captain or captains went out of their way to make sure that we all saw what we were looking for whether it be a dolphin or manatee. They had a great sense of humor and made the trip really fun.
What a great time with Captain Dan. Saw quite a few dolphins and manatees. And got a first hand account how bad things were with hurricane Ian. Learned alot!!!! Will be back!!!
You get to have a great time with your captain and enjoy all wildlife in their own habitat I would recommend this charter/captain to everyone
