    So incredible!!

    2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour • 2 adults

    I went in fully expecting to see nothing, especially given how affordable this was to book. They gave us a really cool history lesson on the harbor where you get on the boat, which was very spacious and comfortable. When we went out into the sound we found a few dolphins pretty quickly! Somehow the captain ended up finding an entire pod of dolphins with a baby! The whole experience was so incredible and a great boat ride. Plus a perfect view of the sunset!!

    Amazing all around!

    2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour • 5 adults

    This was such a fun excursion! I was hosting myself and 4 other girls for a bachelorette week this week in the Outer Banks and our bride loves dolphins so this was a perfect outing for us. Our captain had a lot of good information about the area and we got plenty of angles and views to see the dolphins. it was an amazing experience and we got to experience the sunset tour which is SO worth it if you’re debating it! the price for 5 of us was great as well, 10/10 best experience!

    Response from Charter operator

    Thanks Morgan! We're thrilled to hear your bachelorette group had such a memorable time with us. It sounds like the sunset tour made the experience even more special, and we're so glad you were able to see plenty of dolphins—especially since the bride loves them! We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to our captain. It means a lot to know you enjoyed learning about the area and that everyone felt the tour was such a great value. Thank you for choosing us to be part of your celebration. We hope to welcome you all back to the Outer Banks for another adventure in the future. Congratulations to the bride, and best wishes to her on her upcoming wedding!

    beautiful sunset

    2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour • 2 adults

    we totally enjoyed our trip!!! the staff made sure that we saw dolphins. they shared lots of fun facts and information. and the cruise back to the dock while watching the sunset was awesome. the staff was especially good with the kids and families, offering to take pics and letting the little ones drive the boat.

    Amazing!

    2 Hour – Sunset Dolphin Tour • 5 adults

    I was unsure how this trip would turn out. It was so cloudy and I was concerned. That concern turned into pure joy when we finally spotted dolphins. There was so many! We even saw baby dolphins. It was so awesome that the captain let the younger kids drive the boat. Their smiles were ear to ear. Highly recommend taking this tour.

    Response from Charter operator

    We're so glad you decided to join us, even with the cloudy weather. It's always exciting when patience pays off, and we're thrilled you got to see so many dolphins—including the calves! Those moments are truly special. We're also happy to hear the kids enjoyed getting a chance to drive the boat. Seeing their excitement and big smiles is one the Captain's and Mate's favorite part of every tour. Thank you for your recommendation and for sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you and your family back for another unforgettable dolphin adventure soon!

    Was left behind

    2 Hour – Dolphin Tour (3:00 PM) • 2 adults

    Our boat trip was at 3:30 we arrived at 3:20 we asked to young guys where to go they told us but said they were not back yet we sat for 20 mins then went to inside to ask when the boat was coming to find out they left early because they thought they had everyone. Ladies inside where super nice and apologetic for the mix up and put us on the 6 o clock after that it was amazing we saw so many dolphins and learned a lot about the land and water around us. It started out rocky but that the end we were very pleased.
