From start to finish, the sunset dolphin cruise offered an enchanting and unforgettable experience. As someone who has enjoyed numerous cruises, this one stands out among the rest due to its unique mix of tranquility, adventure, and sheer natural beauty.

The staff on board were courteous and knowledgeable, infusing a rich narrative about the local marine life, particularly dolphins. Their professionalism and dedication to providing the best experience shone as brightly as the setting sun.

What took the cruise from exceptional to awe-inspiring was, of course, the dolphins. We were able to witness them in their natural habitat, free and joyful, adding a new level of respect and admiration for these magnificent creatures. Their playful leaps and flips against the fiery backdrop of the sunset made it a sight for sore eyes.

The sunset itself was nothing short of spectacular. The hues of orange, pink, and purple blended seamlessly with the tranquil blues of the ocean, creating a tableau that was both breathtaking and serene. The twilight hour was a feast for the senses, a perfect backdrop to the captivating ballet of the dolphins.

Additional highlights of the cruise included comfortable seating, a variety of refreshments, and an atmosphere that encouraged both relaxation and engagement. It catered to all ages and was perfect for families, couples, and individual explorers alike.

In conclusion, the sunset dolphin cruise was a magical, soul-soothing journey that I will treasure forever. The perfect blend of nature, adventure, and relaxation made it an experience worth every moment. The memories of the sun dipping below the horizon while dolphins danced around our boat will stay etched in my heart. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a truly unique and awe-inspiring way to appreciate the beauty of the ocean and its inhabitants.

A truly wonderful...

This was hands down, one of the coolest, Sunset Tours I have ever been on! Capt. Jess & Capt. Steve were very knowledgeable of the local area, waters, and history! They shared their knowledge of boating as well and made those within our group, who were first time boat riders, feel safe and comfortable the entire ride.

Not to mention, they ordered the most calm waters and spectacular sunset we could have asked for AND provided a special show with at least 10-12 dolphins who showed up for the sunset as well. They must have been chasing bait because they were active!

HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this group of professionals! They love what they do and you can tell. Both captains were very hospitable and spoke proudly of Panama City, St. Andrew Bay, and the Gulf! Definitely plan on bringing my family from out of town on this tour next time they visit!

It was a beautiful evening of fellowship with friends and taking in God’s greatest gift! Thank you Captain’s for a wonderful evening on the water, we are blessed...

We had a great time on our dolphin watching tour with Captain Jess. We enjoyed our private tour, our up close experience was amazing. We saw other dolphin tour boats pass by with many people on them. We felt it was worth the little bit extra cost for this personal tour. We could see dolphins from all directions being on a small boat and were able to run from one side of boat to other to get a good view. Captain Jess would also turn the boat and get closer any time we point out a dolphin sighting. He gave a great tour and was very informative. This boat tour starts at owners private residence so don’t let that deter you from missing out on this awesome experience. Upon arriving we felt very comfortable and it was very accommodating as there was table to sit at and wait as well as outdoor bathroom. Would highly recommend this tour over the over crowded larger...

We booked Emerald Coast for our family vacation (12 adults and children ). We arrived to find a beautiful location and a friendly staff. We boarded early and were underway on an afternoon of fun. Our first stop was dolphins and the grandkids loved them. Then next we got to see Sea Turtles which made everyone’s bucket list. Along the way we enjoyed our picnic lunch while cruising to Shell Island. Anchored in the bay made for a wonderful stay and the whole family enjoyed our trip ashore. On the way back we saw more dolphins which completed out wonderful experience. The Captains made the ride the best and guided us throughout our tour: We will definitely be booking again next year and recommending Emerald Coast to all our family and friends!
