A Wonderful Family Outing!

2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour11 adults2 children

Our group of eleven ranged in age from 2 to 62 and everyone had a great time! We saw lots of dolphins and many types of seabirds. The captain and first mate were both friendly and knowledgeable, and the sunset as we returned the dock was gorgeous! Highly recommend!

Response from Charter operator

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that everyone in your group—from the youngest to the oldest—had such a memorable experience. Seeing dolphins, seabirds, and a beautiful sunset all in one trip is hard to beat! We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to our captain and first mate. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you and your family back aboard for another adventure soon!

    Overall a very enjoyable ride

    2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour3 adults

    We did get to see dolphins and the sunset which was awesome and the highlight of the trip, but going out was kind of a slow boring ride, I think the captain could have cracked a couple jokes or something, tell us a little bit about the outer banks islands, what we were looking at or something

    Response from Charter operator

    I’m sorry you felt this way. A pontoon is definitely a leisurely ride. Sometimes when the wind is blowing it is hard to hear everything the captain and crew are saying.
