The Dolphin Study Eco-Tour and Cruise

We were a group of 12 and all had fun and learned alot.

The crew was friendly and informative and the dog, Riley was an added bonus. We enjoyed the tour so much we tried to book another tour for the remaining days that we were there but the cruise was booked ten days out! We highly recommend this tour!

Got some good looks at the bottle nose dolphins in the area and the osprey. Shelling was a plus.

Hi, We came to Florida to see its beautiful nature and all the different animals. When we heared about this activity of a Swedish guest in our hotel we tried to get some tickets. We didn't regret this amazing trip, even when we had to return after 2 hours because of an upcoming storm that Kent saw on his radar. Our 4-year-old son enjoyed the time on the boat a lot and will tell all his friends in Germany of the dolphins which we saw in quite high number. kind regards to the dolphy-study guys Claudia

The whole experience was fabulous from checking in through the cruise. Everyone was friendly and you could tell they loved their jobs! The tour was very informative and fun. It was exciting to see the dolphins and birds in their own habitats. The captain and the tour guide were excellent. The tour guide engaged well with all of the age levels; he even offered to take our picture and gave us other pictures he had taken. It was a great experience and we will do it again next time we are there!!!!!

Our grandson is 6 years old and he thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The guide was wonderful and the pictures he gave us were great! We also loved the time at the beach and had lots of shells to bring home. Highly recommend this tour for anyone with children.

You will feel confident and welcomed from the first minute...Bob One was our first contact, and it only got better. Paul was a marine biologist on board to provide millions of interesting facts about the fauna of the area, with the specialty of course being the dolpins. He was not intrusive, but so engaging and sweet. He was certainly an expert and you could tell that he loved his work. We had 17 sightings including a play group of youngsters...delightful. An added treat was a stop at island to walk along a gorgeous beach loaded with shells and more intriguing information from Paul. He also took your group pictures if you wished. Our captain was great and the boat clean and comfortable. Do not miss this great activity! It is so memorable and worth the money.

I had a very diverse group--families, couples old and young--i went alone while my husband was at a business meeting--met a great family whose kids were extremely engaged during the whole trip--they were a lot of fun and invited me to join in the activities--the tour guides were awesome and spoke to many interesting facets of the barrier islands--including the birdlife, trees and other flora--also shared interesting facts about dolphins while we waited to sight one--saw some dolphins on our way out and back--in fact there was a group of dolphins who followed the boat on our way back--the guides took amazing photos and developed right on the boat so we all got to take some home as mementos--shelling on the beach was great--lots and lots and lots of shells to find! overall very fun, entertaining and educational for anyone who loves nature--i highly recommend

The outing was exactly what we had expected. The tour guides were informative, gregarious and made sure everyone enjoyed the experience.

Despite unseasonably cool March weather, our entire family (kids aged 2, 5, and 7) had a fabulous time. The tour was very educational and authentic -- the appreciation for dolphins and their entire ecosystem was genuine. They were patient with those of us taking photos. They were also great with our kids, but it certainly isn't just for kids -- in other words, it's a great experience for all ages. Wouldn't change a thing, but a note for those with children that there are no washroom facilities on the boat or at the beach stop -- so plan accordingly...
