It was a great time - It was a lot of fun! We had a great guy then I’m sorry, but I can’t remember his name. He went above and beyond to find us some dolphins. It was a great afternoon.

Great time!! - Great time and Troy was an amazing guide! Very knowledgeable in the area and marine life. My daughter is very interested in marine biology and learned quite a bit. Saw dolphins and wildlife. Great time shelling. Water wasn’t clear enough to snorkel but that was due to hurricane Debbie just coming through. Overall great experience and would recommend to anyone.

Snorkeling and Dolphin Fun!! - The trip was amazing. Hunter captained our boat and took us out the Shell Island to snorkel. He was kind, specialized our music, and engaged with us throughout the ride. The best part was the dolphin sighting. A storm moved in and we were afraid we wouldn’t see any. Hunter spotted several groups on our return and took the time to get the dolphins to respond. It was beautiful!

Not Snorkeling - Leaving 3 stars because the title of this is misleading. You will not be able to snorkel because the water is not clear enough. Also, we did not go to the location advertised because we were told it was too busy and the water was rough. I will say that the guys that took us out were amazing and my family and I had a good time but we just did not do what we paid to do. We did see dolphins and our captain was very informative and great with us. We were able to get some shells to bring home too.
