So much fun - Top notch. Great experience. Loved the shade the pontoon offered. We had 2 adults and kids ages 8 and 9, and had a blast. We saw like a dozen dolphins, a sea turtle, and then sand dollars when snorkeling. We brought our own snorkels for the kids, but the ones provided were just as good and this isn’t needed. Appreciated the restrooms behind the snack shack to change afterwards.

Lagoon Pontoons and Captain Stan are awesome! - Captain Stan was awesome. After quickly determining that the dolphins were not around, he took us to a great snorkeling spot. When he heard the dolphins were back, he got us quickly (and safely - in choppy waters) to the right spot and got us right where they were going to be. We concluded with a stop to see a group of turtles...very cool. And thanks to Lagoon Pontoons. The morning of the tour, we had to reschedule for the next day due to an illness. No issues...we were able to make the change so the whole family could go. We have rented pontoon boats twice and now did a dolphin tour. We definitely recommend Lagoon Pontoons.

Dolphins tour - We were very pleased with this experience! Captain Stan was phenomenal and very informative. We saw plenty of dolphin and got to swim with them then go to shell island to hang out for a bit! We got very lucky and had the boat to ourselves so extra points for that

Wonderful Experience - Amazing experience with Captain Jacob and First Mate Willow! We found dolphins and jumped in at the perfect time to see them swim around and under us. Also great snorkeling and shell hunting. We even saw a green sea turtle! Once in a lifetime opportunity, I highly recommend this tour!
