What an amazing adventure! Both the captain and his mate were charming and informative. The boat was lovely with plenty of room. They were very accommodating both with my desire to see dolphins, and my nausea from motion sickness. We chose an early morning cruise, the area was not overly inundated with other boats, so felt like we had at least a little piece of the ocean to ourselves. I highly recommend this touring company, and will definitely use it again when we return to the area.
