“Family, Fun, Fins - First, Captain Steve is the best! He really made this experience memorable. Not only did he ask what we would like to do, he delivered - DOLPHINS! We saw a large pod, maybe multiple pods, including a mother and baby! Then he took us to find sharks, and we did - too many to be thrilled about…lol. Captain Steve was very knowledgeable and shared great info about the surrounding area and sea life! It really was a perfect day…a great time!!” - Reviewed at 2024-06-12
