We’re located at Pier 21 in front of Harbor House Hotel. Just two blocks from the historic Strand District in downtown Galveston.

Capt z seems to know what he is doing. And is Profesional in execution of his duties.
We had a great afternoon on the dolphin watching trip. We took our 7 year old twin grandsons on this tour and they had a blast. We were able to see multiple pods playing in the harbor, while learning some Interesting facts about some of the ships in the area. Highly recommend Baywatch Dolphin Tours.
What an amazing experience!!! Done this with my daughter who is 8 we saw lots of dolphins and even baby dolphins can’t rate this enough 🐬
We did the sunset tour and it was amazing. It was so cool to see all the dolphins.
Staff were great with our handicapped member!
We really enjoyed and would love to do it again. We really enjoyed captain travis he made it fun!
We had a wonderful time! Captain Z was so much fun, and we saw tons of dolphins. We are exited to try the evening cruise with them as well as take another dolphin tour. Such an awesome experience!
Travis was an amazing person and caption through and through! Very informative and engaging
Captain Travis made our boat ride & dolphin experience so fun! We saw some & learned so much dolphins, and learned so much about Galveston. It was my husband and I, and our two infants :) We definitely recommend booking a trip with them! We will be back 💜
Pleasantly surprised with how many dolphin we were able to see and how much we enjoyed doing this. It was a spur of the moment booking and did not disappoint!
I’m a local and took visiting family members on the tour. It was wonderful!! Capt Travis was very pleasant & knowledgeable about the harbor. We saw lots of dolphins - will definitely sign up again!
Nice tour. Plenty of dolphins. Good information about things in the harbour.
We had Captain Z, and he was great! He was the perfect mixture of comedy Central and animal planet. We really enjoyed it. He made it really special for the kids.
We had Captain Z piloting the boat. He was entertaining and knowledgeable. He was cordial and friendly. We really enjoyed our time seeing the dolphins.
It was a great experience very educational and the guides were wonderful. The app used during the experience was amazing!!
Great time.nice to be out on the water.saw a lot of dolphins
Fun little tour, saw a lot of dolphins. Guide was funny and friendly.
We enjoyed the dolphin tour. It was so cool seeing all the dolphins.
We went to the same area of the bay that the ferry goes on and I saw the same amount of dolphins that I see from the ferry which is free, not a good value
My husband and I loved it! Well worth the price and time spent. We've lived in Houston for 37 years, spent lots of time in Galveston but never slowed down enough to tour the island properly. We boarded the boat behind Willie Gs at Pier 21. The captain and assistant were very friendly. Captain joked a lot while also providing historical facts and pointing out dolphin sightings. A special moment was when a mother and baby dolphin swam close to us! So cute! Captain let all the children "drive" the boat and blow the horn. Nice! The entire experience was enjoyable and relaxing. We plan to tour again soon with family visiting from out of town.
Haunted harbor tour, sunset cruise, and dolphin watching were all great trips. Captain Mark and Captain Travis both did excellent jobs. Lucio was out guide/narrator for haunted harbor, and did an excellent job as well. Would recommend !
We had a fantastic time on our dolphin cruise and enjoyed seeing many dolphins as well as listening to all of the knowledge our tour guide had to offer.
So much fun. Got to see lots of dolphins and Captain Z was great; very funny
Great tour! We saw lots of dolphins! Don’t miss the trip. Very engaging and our entire family loved it.
My wife and I have taken the tour twice once in August and one yesterday. The captain was great as usual. Saw plenty of dolphins. The price is great. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Galveston.
Wonderful trip. The grandkids loved it!
Captain very funny and knowledgeable.
Very fun trip, we got lucky and saw a big group of dolphins. Definitely worth the money. We even got accommodated to an earlier time since we got there early.
Great experience. Lots of dolphin sighting. Awesome
Awesome!! 2nd dolphin cruise with these guys! Grandkids always have a blast!!!! Thanks CAPTAIN TRENT!
A nice history about the boats in the water before our Dolphin adventure. Our captain was funny and entertaining! I would highly recommend this excursion. You definetly see 🐬! ♥️♥️
Trent was a great guide! We got to see lots of dolphins and he involved the kids too!!
What a great way to sightsee and see wildlife at the same time. Captain was extremely knowledgeable and knew right where the dolphins would be. Restrooms and drinks are available on board. Will book this tour every time we visit now! Thank you for a great afternoon. Can’t wait to take the sunset cruise.
Captain Trent was awesome. He was knowledgeable about the ships and dolphins. We saw lots of dolphins.
Very fun and enjoyable. The captain was very friendly and personable as well as he clearly knew the harbor and the cool things about it. My wife was all about the dolphins we saw but I was way more into all the different ships we went past. Highly recommend!!!
My wife and I really enjoyed our Baywatch Dolphin tour. Captain Ken was very knowledgeable about the history of the harbor and made sure we were able to see some of the dolphins. I would definitely recommend a Baywatch Dolphin tour.
Such a fun experience for our family! We saw quite a few dolphins and loved hearing the history and knowledge Captain Ken had to share!
Was fun and educational. We saw dolphins right away and the guide Z was fun and made sure everyone was having a good time.
Amazing experience we went at 10 saw lots of dolphins and our puppy got to enjoy the ride too! Our guide was funny and knowledgeable
It was so fun and the tour guide/Captain was super informative about the history, we enjoyed learning about the ships on our way to see the dolphins
Captain Z was amazing. Very knowledgeable about the area and funny too!
Amazing Time. Price was worth it. Cool breeze for the ride and visit. As a party of 10 had plenty of room with more families also on board. The crew was an awesome and hilarious. Worth the hour long boat ride.
We had a really fun time with our granddaughters on this tour. Captain Z was fun and had lots of interesting information about dolphins. The girls loved seeing all the dolphins. There was even a baby dolphin with its momma. Fun!
We booked kinda last minute but it was super easy to book, super reasonable price, lots of time options available, great information once booked, super friendly staff, wonderful boat captain Z, we saw soo many dolphins during a feeding frenzy, the captain let our little drive the boat and blow the horn! I can’t say enough great things about our dolphin cruise :)
Great trip under Captain Ken. I personally loved the history that the Captain imparted as well as the visuals which were beautiful ! Thanks to everyone involved.
Do not purchase tickets for this event. The dolphins were barely visible and the majority of the cruise had nothing to do with dolphins. The captain was nice though. Also, one of our family members got sick and could not join us but Viator refused to refund us the cost of that 1 ticket. I won't book with them again.
The dolphin tour was fun and Captain Z was funny and entertaining! He even let my 16 year old recreate a photo of driving the boat from when she was 10! It was overall a fun experience for the whole family and we will definitely be back on our next trip to Galveston.
Very fun I liked getting to stop and see them swimming around
Absolutely great! Loved the guy that brought us out!
