5.00The crew of the Hannah Marie was amazing! They were very knowledgeable, as well as personable (fun). We were able to see a few dolphins and sharks, but we were also able to take a few extra minutes on the tour to see a family of manta rays. The crew was very excited about this sighting because they said that was rare for that area. My point in mentioning that was to reiterate how the crew made the tour personal and customized to what was around the area. Thank you for a fun and enlightening tour. Highly recommend!

5.00The captain and staff were fun and entertaining! The boat was a little crowded. The dolphins didn’t show until the end and the captain stayed so we could enjoy them.
Nice outing, ship captain...

5.00We had a very even keel first part of the excursion not seeing anything, but enjoying our boat ride and company. Once we got past Crab Island and out in the ocean more, we finally were able to see dolphins. It was absolutely amazing that the drivers and staff spend more time out past the time we were scheduled back in. Thank you and well done!
Awesome adventure

5.00Saw only 2 dolphins. It was different than any dolphin 🐬 cruise I’d ever been on. Exciting & when we went in Chanel the waves were extensive & somewhat scary but in a good way.
