What to expect

Available for a minimum of 4 participants, the Sunset Cruise is more laid-back. Since the sun is lower on the horizon at that time, it will be at your captain's discretion if you get in the water to swim with dolphins. He usually does, but it always depends on the marine conditions. You will be cruising from the boat dock to Shell Island, which is about a 15-minute ride. We may find dolphins just about anywhere along the way, and we will put you in the water with them whenever it is safe to do so. Once the dolphins leave, we either move with them and swim again, or we look for another group of dolphins to swim with, or just watch. It may happen in the Bay, in the pass, or most of the time along Shell Island. Every time we find dolphins, you will be able to observe behaviors such as socializing, playing, mating, jumping, feeding, or just traveling. Time allowing and depending on your priorities in the 2-hour time budgeting, we will stop to snorkel either at the jetties or inside the bay, where you can look for shells and explore Shell Island, home to great blue herons, snowy egrets, ospreys, and pelicans.
