I can’t say enough good things about this boat trip. It was perfect for our family of five consisting of kids ages 7-13. The amount of dolphins we saw was unreal. We even had the friendliest dolphin come up to our boat! Seashell Island was the best part. Absolutely breathtaking! We ran around, explored, collected seashells and enjoyed the breathtaking views! We reeled in a couple of fish while cruising the water also. Captain Jeff was incredible. He was so kind, flexible, and knowledgeable.
captain was super experienced and knew just where to go, saw lots of dolphins and was an A+ experimece. Book it!
Jeff was very accommodating and professional. He took his time to explain things and is very good at spotting dolphins. I highly recommend him.

Captain Jeff Ready was awesome. He knew exactly where to take us for the best chance to see dolphins!

I started in this business 30 years ago as a fly fishing guide in the Rocky Mountains. After which we moved to the Pacific Northwest and began doing fishing charters, commercial crabbing, and whale watching along the Oregon Coast. While I do love fishing, Dolphin watching and eco tours are my favorite thing to take people on to experience. There nothing quite like playful dolphins swimming with the boat right next to you or poking their head out of the water giving you that 'dolphin smile'.
