Key West Sunset Sail: Dolphin Watching, Wine, And Tapas

We booked this dolphin tour during our trip to Key West. While we didn't see a huge number of dolphins, the crew did provide a lot of interesting pieces and bits of information about the area and the wildlife. The music was good and the drinks were plenty, making for an enjoyable and relaxing time out on the water overall.

Crew were knowledgeable and pleasant. Boat was clean, excursion was fun. We were fortunate enough to see a LARGE number of dolphins .

This dolphin cruise was really enjoyable. Our captain and first mate, Alexa and Bradley, took great care of us with hors d'oeuvres and drinks. We saw dozens of dolphins. A beautiful close to our Key West trip.

sit back relax and enjoy Alexa was an amazing captain of the catamaran and Bradley was a wonderful host

My wife and I are repeat customers-last year we took your sunset only cruise, and it was an amazing experience. The captain and his crew were professional throughout the entire cruise, and we returned this year expecting the same experience but were badly disappointed. We have lots of fun photos from our experience last year to share-see below. Upon our initial arrival onboard, my wife and I sat directly in front of the bar area, due to the fact that my wife just had two surgeries (hip and shoulder) so her mobility was limited. We were the only guests sitting in this location. This didn't take away from the fact that we wanted to enjoy this event. The crew/captain introduced themselves, and we departed. Initially, as we approached the bar for drinks, the ship mate, TRAVIS, tended bar and asked each of us "where are you from and what do you do?". I responded that we are from Northern Virginia/Washington DC. He immediately responded "You're not a Fed, are you?" and I replied, "yes, I am and my wife is a teacher". "i explained that I work with trains." As the boat sailed, TRAVIS immediately catered to certain guests on the boat that were drinking heavily, offering them fast refillls and taking their photos. . He was patronizing and catering to everyone around us, except myself and my wife. When the small snacks were served by TRAVIS, my wife and I were skipped/ignored- my wife was upset and went up to TRAVIS and let him know that we were ignored and my wife told him aloud "we are sitting right in front of you, and you are serving everyone else, so how can you miss us?" He left the remaining scraps of food at the bar, and my wife served us. TRAVIS went about patronizing the other guests. Once my wife called him out, he apologized and began to pay us attention, although it was forced and over an hour into the cruise. At this point, neither of us were enjoying ourselves, and we wanted to return to the dock. Did TRAVIS have a problem with me being a Fed? Mind, you, I was on vacation with my wife, in no official capacity, just as a paying passenger. I am Italian American (i wore my Italy hat), and my wife is Black American- was this the factor that caused our limited service? Did TRAVIS think that we did not have deep pockets like the rest of the guests? At the end, the ship captain announced that based on her calculation of average fees paid, we SHOULD ALL tip TRAVIS at a minimum of $20 each. My wife and I were appalled at the gall of your crew to demand this or even suggest this. Mind you last year, your crew never asked us for money or even suggested it. It was because of our great experience last year that we returned in the first place. We paid over $150 for this cruise, plus paid $24 for parking, and we did not feel any sense of the same fun we experienced last year. Still trying to figure out this morning what it was that we paid for- watered down beer and morsels of food that wasn't served to us. Based on this experience, we cannot recommend this cruise to anyone and we both feel cheated, and angry. You need to hire better people and provide them diversity training (if inded this was the issue), especially in this day and age. And really, with the price you charge, your crew should not be demanding extra money or judging people based on their appearance, profession, or possible wealth.

A beautiful evening sunset and so many amazing dolphins! Well worth the cost! The crew was knowledgeable and so fun!!

Great time and spectaculars views. Amazing sunset in between two beautiful storms . Captain did an amazing job finding the sunset and missing the storm clouds

We had a lovely time with Shay and Finn as our crew! They were very kind and accommodating. We even got a drink to go at the end and lovely snacks throughout. Our favorite were the tarts and the shrimp cocktail!

Overall, I thought the experience was fun. The crew member that was tending bar and serving food and mixing with all of us was funny, polite, and really made the trip worthwhile. As for the captain, he didn't talk to after his safety speech. All in all do it for the sunset. It was beautiful

Absolutely the most amazing experience & going to the “Dolphin Playground “ was so awesome

This is my third time on this tour as this is our go to when we have friends and family down. The captain and first mate are always friendly, engaging and interesting. Captain Brett and Dawson did not disappoint. We had a great time, saw so many dolphins and enjoyed the night on the water! I love this boat tour because people are not crammed on the boat and we have room to move around, have fun and enjoy the view. The apps and wine are always a nice touch. The sunset was beautiful as Key West usually delivers. Always a good time for our first time friends that come down for a visit. Highly recommend.

Captain and bartender Eve were great. Professional and also got to know everyone by name on the cruise. An excellent experience

Well looked after by the captain and crew. Good dolphin sighting. The weather did not cooperate for an amazing sunset, but still some pink in the sky. Sangria was free flowing and the canapés simple but tasty. Thanks

On time boarding, great hospitality with free soda, water and beer! We saw dolphins and a beautiful sunset! I enjoyed immensely!

Good experience. Will do again

Nice boat ride with great music, drinks and hope to see dolphins. The sunset was quickly engulfed by clouds so be ready for that pic.

We had a great time and thought Travis was fantastic attending to every possible need. Nice appetizers too with delicious key lime pie. The only downside was the hard sell to spend $20 to get “priority” boarding. It felt manipulative as there was plenty of room for everyone. Not the best first impression.

The dolphins were great; the drinks were great; the tapas were great and the crew was great. Fantastic experience.

Captain Brandon and Grace took us right to the dolphin playground. Grace is knowledgable and super nice. The mood is laidback and relaxed. We many dolphins and a great sunset. Highly recommend

John and Joe were amazing and kept everyone entertained! We did get to see a lot of dolphins and the sunset was absolutely beautiful!

Motor cruise, not sailing. They found a few dolphins and provided a great experience. Ourderves and service were great.

This was an incredible experience! I would say the trip started with me melting in the hot June sun while walking to the docks. Once there and out to sea, everything changed. The staff were incredible. Old fashioned customer service. Made sure everyone onboard was comfortable, and enjoying the experience. The crew takes care of you. We did see dolphins, and that was excellent. The sunset at the end was stunning. I loved my experience and would highly recommend this.

It was very enjoyable. The wine and tapas were amazing. The Captain and crew were knowledgeable and friendly, they were very entertaining and helpful. The dolphins were incredible and the sunset beautiful! Highly recommend!

This was an absolutely beautiful sunset tour. The captain and crew were friendly and competent. The appetizers were delicious: shrimp cocktail, Caprese sticks, and ahi paste with croustini. The boat was very spacious, and there was room for everyone. I would recommend this tour to anyone. We saw many dolphins and a gorgeous sunset. The music was classic rock. Five stars!

Dolphins were so fun! The crew did a great job. Food and drinks were good as well. We had a great time!

No dolphins was disappointing. However it’s free flow of wine if that helps. 2.5 hours of just sailing, was overpriced. Tapas could be better.

Bradley and the captain were very professional. The tapas were delicious. The boat was clean and well care. There was not to many people on the craft. Highly recommend.

1. Don't expect to see dolphins and they will just go back and fourth in the same spot looking for them. 2 1/2 hours is too long and the price is too much for what you get. Also not their fault but the clouds blocked the sunset. Overall a waste of our time and money Tip: Do not fall for the extra $20 per person just so you can board 1st. Plenty of seating for everyone

We went on the catamaran Tera Lani 2 operated by Sebago Water Sports in Key West. The group is limited to 50 people so it was not crowded. The crew was very helpful, the tapas were excellent and the beer wine & prosecco were good brands. The cruise is about an hour longer than most because we searched for dolphins on our way out. We were fortunate to see a few and even captured a photo. The sunset was fabulous that evening and not obstructed by any islands or clouds. It was a fantastic journey & we highly recommend this particular sunset cruise.

Sunset was amazing, food was seriously lacking and we were appalled (as were many others), at them telling you how much you should tip them. The Capt came on on two different occasions and said that customary tip is 25% of your ticket price. Then at the end told everybody that they should tip at least $15-$20 per person, but don’t let customary percent prevent you from tipping more. WTH, do you not get paid to do your job & a tip is based on our experience, not on being told what is expected. Pathetic! Totally turned us off of ever booking with you again.

Dolphin watching sunset sail did not disappoint! The captain and crew were awesome and the trip was as described. Highly recommend!

Great sunset sail with plenty of drinks snacks and Dolphins! Great crew. Very attentive to everyone’s needs

Excellent evening! Crew was absolutely fabulous! Appetizers were small but delicious. Saw a lot of dolphin’s not always guaranteed.plenty of room even with a full ship.

Wonderful and relaxing experience. The Captain and First Mate were pleasant and polite. The information shared along the trip was clear and not a rushed scripted narrative.

Wonderful experience and will definitely come back!

Great experience with friendly crew Brian and Jordan. We saw so many dolphins, many up close to the catamaran. The time flew by quickly so be sure to enjoy every minute! Loved it, brilliant memories to take home with us.❤️

Capt Brett and First Mate Gracie we great and made our dolphin watching experience awesome. Much better than the Commotion on the Ocean cruise we took earlier in the week . If you're looking for a relaxing cruise that fun try this one!

Fun, relaxing, good tapas and WONDERFUL staff! We saw dolphins, as promised. And we also saw 2 sea turtles! BONUS! And the sunset was beyond description.

Fun time! Great tour friendly staff saw lots of dolphins. We definitely recommend to anyone that is in the area. Appetizers were good enjoyed ourselves.

We had a medical emergency and though we were disappointed in not being able to take the tour, the understanding and consideration we were given (full refund) was very much appreciated!

Comfortable, great crew, great snacks and drinks, recorded music instead of LOUD live music, and saw lots of dolphins! And the sunset was EPIC.

An absolutely amazing time! Highly recommend! The crew made it so much fun and being on a catamaran, made it even more beautiful!

Sebagi Sunset Sail was amazing. Great service, relaxed vibe and tons of fun. Grace was awesome!!!

Had a wonderful time. Would go again

Nice relaxing activity, saw a few dolphins for about 30 seconds. but still cute. wouldn’t expect much from seeing them. appetizers were very yummy but only a few. staff was great. Finn and Captain Shay were fun and friendly. can go with any age as long as you don’t have to use the bathroom. that looked like an adventure going down the hatch.

Nice cruise, comfortable boat, saw Dolphins, sunset from the boat was awesome. Tapas and drinks were good, and crew/captain were fun, nice.

Great boat captain and bartender, friendly and informative. Temps are cooler on the water, so sweater or sweatshirt is recommended.

Good service but 2 1/2 hr a little long. Young kids on board got very ansey. Crew great and sunset beautiful

We had a great time!! The captain and bartender were awesome!!
