Brother’s lemonade
2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour on July 6, 2025 • 2 adults
The weather wasn’t ideal, so we weren’t sure how the trip would play out…the brothers stepped up and helped us make the best of the trip! We seen lots of dolphins, learned a lot about dolphins including how they sleep (not with both eyes closed 😂), learned about the area and got to see a semi sunset! It was an awesome experience despite the uncooperative weather 🤪…we made lemonade out of lemons 😂

Had a great time.
2 Hour – Dolphin Tour (3:30 PM) on September 16, 2025 • 3 adults
My family took the 10:am trip. Our guide was friendly as was the Captain. They found an area that had so many dolphins. They were literally everywhere you looked. The dolphins were playful which was fun to watch and several came up to the boat. Got to see two baby's too. It turned out to be more than we expected. We had a really fun time the whole trip!

First trip to NC
2 Hour – Dolphin Tour (10 AM) on July 22, 2025 • 4 adults
This was our first trip to NC and this cruise was one of the first to pop up on my search and it was great. I have been on larger cruise before, but I preferred this one much better. Smaller boat, smaller amount of people, more intimate.The crew was super nice and knew a lot about the entire area and culture. It was a great trip and I would highly recommend it.

An enjoyable day on the boat
2 Hour – Dolphin Tour (10 AM) on July 2, 2025 • 2 adults
Today we saw a bit of the dolphin. We saw breaching and blowing as they broke the water. I learned a lot about the area, dolphin and were encouraged to ask questions, which the brothers patiently answered. The day was beautiful and if you are looking something slower to do after days of go, go, go try this team at Star Dolphin Tours.

Great Experience! So many dolphins!
2 Hour – Dolphin Tour (3:30 PM) on September 2, 2025 • 4 adults
Our captain and mate were fantastic, especially for just being a substitute crew. Couldn’t have asked for a better time, except for maybe the city history part that was supposed to be part of the trip. But they delivered on the dolphins and that’s what we were there for. We truly enjoyed the experience!
