Such a fun way to spend the afternoon! Steve was our captain and Grace was our dolphin expert. They were both extremely knowledgeable and kind! They took the time to answer all questions and I’ve never been that close to dolphins in the wild before. I love that it was such a laid back cruise with beautiful scenery everywhere you looked!

The Dolphin Quest cruise was incredible! Not only did we see a ton of dolphins, but the crew (Steve and Grace) were friendly, knowledgeable, and really funny! It was a chilly day for Florida and they had blankets for everyone just in case. The cruise boat was smaller than the other one we saw so it felt like a very intimate experience! We learned so much and had a fun time doing it! Thank you Grace and Steve!!!

Wonderful! Grace explained the various dolphin groups, how to determine their age and much more. On the boat ride, we saw many dolphins and local birds. We were offered drinks; wine, beer…. Thank you Capt. Dorwin for all your hurricane knowledge.

We had such a great time on the Dolphin Quest! The crew, especially Kirsten and Cole, were super friendly and made the whole trip enjoyable. We saw so many dolphins, including moms with their babies, which was amazing to watch up close. The boat was comfortable, the views were beautiful, and the staff made sure everyone had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see dolphins in their natural habitat!
