Had a great experience. We saw many of dolphins. The captains shared lots of information about the area and dolphin habitat.

A half hour shelling on the island is not long enough. Baskets are provided.

My friend has taken the spongorama tour many times.

Had an amazing experience with this boat tour. The parking was free and we were able to stay parked there after our ride. The captain and crew were very friendly and knowledgeable. Our group got lucky and got to see a lot of dolphins and they made sure everyone got a chance to see them. The gave us advice that the best shells were in ankle deep water and we found some very good ones! The price for the 2 hour ride was very fair and I highly recommend this to everyone.

We did the Sunset Dolphin and Shelling Cruise two years ago and could not wait to do it again, so we booked another one as soon as we came back to Tarpin Springs this February. The experience is incredible. The crew on the boat is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. Both times we were very lucky and saw several dolphins, but it would be worth it to me for the shelling experience alone! The boat takes you to a small uninhabited island with loads of different shells. You can pick as many as you want all while enjoying the most magnificent view of the sunset. I have gorgeous pictures from both trips. We will absolutely do this again next time we are in town and I highly recommend it to anyone! It’s a great value for such an amazing experience.

My daughter, her girlfriend, myself & my BFF went on the 2:30 Dolphin Cruise yesterday, 11/16/2024. We had bought our tickets the day before, since my daughter and her GF were in town for 3 days from Michigan and we want to show them the beauty of Florida. It was our first time doing the cruise and it was amazing! We saw many dolphins, and the boat captain and other staff were amazing! I'm in a wheelchair so challenging for all. The boat staff were so helpful to get me up into the boat, but....from the beginning we got held up at an appointment prior to the cruise. I called the Dolphin Cruise and spoke to Naomi who is a gem! I let her know we were on our way so we might be there later than the 15 minute before departure time. Of course we had 2 cars and my daughter from out of state, we had to keep them behind us. I called Naomi again to ask if we missed the 2:30 cruise, could we get on the 4:30 tour. Plus parking is at a minimum in Tarpon Springs. Plus they had to get me out to a wheelchair and then find a parking spot. She said she'd text me the address, I'd put in my GPS and how far away. 8 minutes! What about parking? Same place and free! From there we couldn't figure out where to go. Naomi, again to the rescue. She came out of the ticket booth pointed us to the entrance, and we were in our seats at 2:31! This is a must do if you're anywhere near Tarpon Springs! NAOMI should definitely get recognized as Employee of the Year!

10 out of 10 - perfect evening! The cruise was fantastic and the Captain was very informative as he highlighted the area & waterway. Just a fun evening.

We had such a great experience! Admittedly, got very lucky by coming across a lively group of dolphins (which I realize isn't always guaranteed). Great views from every spot on the boat. Staff and captain were so fun and incredibly informative about dolphins. They could tell us everything the dolphins were doing (uuuummm...there may have been some dolphins mating) and it was so cool to learn more about their behavior. Shell collecting was also so fun and it was so nice to get out and walk along a nice beach. Drinks available, and fun music playing. It was a great vibe. Our family was 2 adults, a 9 year old and 12 year old and all had a good time.

We had a wonderful sunset cruise... The captain was exceptional to say the least...he made sure we all saw the beautiful wild dolphin...as well as giving us a lot of history of the area! My grandchildren's first venture on a boat and they are asking to go back! Thank you for a great evening!
