Great weather, great dolphins, great experience - Captain Neil was great. We saw many dolphins in many different areas. At one point they were on all sides of the boat. We also got a nice tour of the area and some good food recommendations. We will definitely come back and do another trip with captain Neil!

Great Time with Captain Neil - We enjoyed our trip with Captain Neil! He gave us a very good tour of the local area. Within 5 minutes of taking off from the pier, we were videoing dolphins. After watching pods of dolphins having fun, we got a chance to see the large houses along the Spanish Wells and Sea Pines coast, and we went all the way to Harbour Town. On our way back we saw the pirate ship and the Stars and Stripes sailboat underway. On the approach back he told us more about Daufuskie Island. Captain Neil answered all of our questions and throughout the trip he was very informative about the area and some of its history!

Neil was great, the boat was great, and the cruise was well worth the cost! - I am so glad we chose to take this private boat cruise! Neil was great and took us where we could see many dolphins, and pointed out many interesting things as we passed various landmarks. In my opinion, the extra money you spend for a private cruise is absolutely worth every penny!
