Enjoy Dolphin Tour-Love It... - My family enjoyed the boat ride. During the boat ride we saw many dolphins. Staffs at this location were very nice and helpful. Captain Aubrey and first mate Sid were awesome and very nice. We had a great time; my three kids enjoyed the boat tour and saw dolphins jump. Many thanks....

Fins Up - A Cut Above! - We couldn't be happier with this excursion. You are offered 2 hours to glide around the gulf of Mexico. find dolphins, admire the scenery and arrive at a small sandbar that is cute as can be. We were treated to a number of dolphin pods with some playing in the waves. Captain would do a circle generating more waves that kept the dolphins playing for quite awhile. A complete run down of who lives where (celebrities). Feel free to bring a small cooler of your own items. Soda, water and snacks are available at modest prices. Capt. Aubrey and Syd were outstanding. I could have used more Bob Marley but I digress. Totally family appropriate. Tip, look closely at parking in Clearwater to get a spot that serves you well. Excursions have a parking lot at the marina. These are dependant on having a reservation for an activity. We were early enough 10:30 am, to secure a spot in a public lot across from the marina. Three dollars per hour. This meant we had a secure spot to walk up town to eat and the ability to be yards from the beach. You had the freedom to do what you wanted without worrying about parking. It's important. Plan well. These folks live for tips, remember to bring some cash or use the QR codes to give these folks a 5 or 20 to show them how much you loved it! What a dream!

Dolphin Birthday Celebration - The Dolphin/Island cruise was a surprise for my birthday - what an incredible way to celebrate! Captain Steve and Syd were incredibly welcoming and gave us a ton of information about the area and the wildlife. We saw a manatee and a ton of dolphins - we even got to see the dolphins put on a little “show” as they danced in the wake of another boat. Then we stopped at a little public sandbar and spent 10-15 minutes swimming on our own “private” island. On our way back to the slip Syd announced my birthday and got everyone to sing happy birthday. It was an amazing experience and would highly recommend to anyone with a free afternoon in Clearwater.

So much fun! - We had a great time. The captain and the girls were fantastic. The boat was very clean and there were snacks and drinks you could purchase or you could bring your own and put them in a cooler to keep them cold. The tour gave a lot of fun facts and we saw dolphins and our favorite part was when we stopped on the sandbar to get out and swim. Well worth it!

Fins Up for Fun! - The Fins Up cruise was very enjoyable! Captain Aubrey and Landon did a great job of pointing out the attractions along the way including all the dolphins! The stop at One Tree Island was also enjoyable! We have a lot of great memories from this cruise. Thanks, Captain Aubrey & Landon!

Family fun experience - If you like smaller more intimate crowds this is the experience. They can have up to 40 people on the boat but the experience was beautiful either way. Great insights of the city and yes we saw dolphins. We went on the 730pm ride.

Really enjoyable trip - saw Dolphins - A really enjoyable trip. Saw dolphins & manatees. Hot day, so the shade on the boat was welcome. Refreshments available to buy on board. Restroom on board. Great commentary & information from the first mate. Stopped for swimming from a small island. Parking at the marina was confusing - you had to get a code from Finns up to allow you to park for longer than 30mins. Car park very busy at 2.30pm. All in all we had a great couple of hours.

Was just not that impressed… - OK, the good and the bad. The good - it’s two hours long, which is a decent time and the price is pretty good considering that you’re going out on the water for that long. However, we saw no dolphins. When we landed at the sandbar to swim we literally stayed there 10 minutes. Make sure you wear shoes for the one tree island as the sand is covered in shells.
