    Absolutely fabulous

    1.5 Hour – Sunset Cruise • 3 adults

    We had the most wonderful experience. My husband and iur best friend booked a two-hour sunset cruise on May 5th which happened to be their first of the season. The captain and crew assistant could not have been nicer and the boat was in pristine condition. We enjoyed an absolutely perfect sunset while learning about some of the history and sites of Manteo. The whole experience from booking to arrival and departure could not have been easier. If we had paid double the price, we would’ve thought it was worth it. This created a memory we will carry with us forever.

    Beautiful Night For a Sunset Cruise

    1.5 Hour – Sunset Cruise • 9 adults • 1 child

    Captain Lee, Dylan &. were wonderful hosts. We saw a couple of dolphins. That was a wonderful experience while on the cruise. The views were stunning. Our whole family (there were 9 of us.”enjoyed this experience & would definitely partake in it again. The price was incredibly reasonable. Great company, a beautiful evening, memorable and dolphins. I’m not sure you’d have a better experience than with this charter.

    Crystal Dawn Dolphin Boat tour

    1.5 Hour – Sunset Cruise • 4 adults

    We had a fabulous sunset tour on the Crystal Dawn Dolphin with Captain Charles Foreman and his wonderful crew member. They were so personable and made the trip so memorable by talking about the area and stopping to show the dolphins 🐬. Thanks again. Penny, Alice, Danny and Timmy from WV.
