The guys were wonderful with us. We saw so many dolphins and the island we went shelling at was quite big and we saw turtles. We didn't get to go snorkeling but you have to follow the weather; safety first. I'd go back on another one of these tours in a heartbeat and I highly recommend them!

Phenomenal tour! The captain and crew were amazing, shared all the best spots for snorkeling, finding shells and even took the long way back to ensure we saw dolphins jumping! Answered so many questions from us and the kids about the area. A great family adventure - our 4,7, and 9 year old had the best time!

I posted a review yesterday and they commented back after 5 hours with the nicest comment I have ever gotten, this is why this is the best place to go if you are around the st. Pete’s, they care about everyone opinion and not a lot of places do thag any more, all love for the workers. Bless them all.

The workers are super nice and kind, they always making sure that everyone is having a great time and get to experience everything, definitely recommend if you are on a family vacation or live in the area, they make sure that your money doesn’t go to waste. I would rate it 10/5 but you can only do 5 stars.

Dolphin snorkeling cruise provided great customer service, clean equipment, and a great experience! We went to the beautiful Egmont Island where you are able to see tortoises, big shells, and clear beautiful Florida water! We then enjoyed an hour of snorkeling/swimming at your own pace! To finish off the trip we cheered as the beautiful dolphins played.

Pro tip: Don’t let your irresponsible friend plan the trip. Bring drinks (alcohol is allowed), food, snacks.

Family friendly!

Trip was awesome! We saw dolphins trailing the boat and all got chances to take pictures. The snorkeling was great and the masks/snorkels provided were cleaned and in good shape. We collected tons of shells on the island and were able to see the tortoises on the island along with the lighthouse. Captain Frank and first mate David were excellent and made it overall a great experience!

We had an amazing time today. Within minutes of leaving the dock a pod of four dolphins began following our boat and leaping through the wake, they followed us for a while on our way to Egmont Key.

When we arrived at Egmont Key they anchored us in shallow water, we saw fish, conch, and sea urchins.

The last part of the tour we walked around Egmont shelling and had a large haul of seashells to bring him.

Great trip, friendly crew and it was not overly crowded.

My niece was visiting from out of state and wanted to snorkel and we made it last minute on a Sunday and I’m so glad we did! The trip was amazing - we saw dolphins, manatees, swam with fish, enjoyed the beach. All staff was friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to go back!

Everyone was great. Saw a ton of dolphins. Definitely made for a great day. They were super accommodating and great communication as another company had canceled our tour last minute. Exceeded expectations, 100% recommend.

2 days ago me and my family went on your cruise and it was extremely disappointing. The only good thing we got to see was dolphins. When we got to the island there was a fire and we were told we had to leave the island. Then the weather turned for the worse and the snorkeling was barely visible due to the water being murky from the storms. The captain and skipper did great and it's not their fault. I just feel like a discount should have happened because what was promised compared to what was delivered was less than acceptable. I reached out to the company via text and email and they offered me a free cruise on another day. But after our miserable experience we didn't want to go again. I asked for a partial refund for the bad experience and I was ignored after that. I gave them 2 full days to respond so now I'm leaving this review and letting you know that this company can't be trusted if they won't even respond to their customers complaints. If they decide to fix this issue I will change my review but it shouldn't have come to this.

Best dolphin sighting I've ever been on! Dolphins just about jumped in boat! The Island was brethren taking! Crew very approachable and humble people! Thanks guys for a everlasting memory for my family!

Would steer clear of this one. Saw a few dolphins which was cool, but everyone was getting stung by jellyfish and these guys weren't friendly about it. Glad they do release the live stuff back, but the water was not "waist deep" or clear where we snorkeled. It was much higher, which could be a problem for those with small children. Would never do this one again.

This was a great photo opportunity on the boat and walking the island. The crew was skilled, responsible and attentive.

This was AMAZING. My first time out in the ocean! Dave, Frank, and the other crew mate helped me feel safe and they were so professional! Good music, great people, great views! I’m definitely coming back. We got to do so much during 4 hours: Snorkeling, dolphins, artifacts, and a nice boat ride. Bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and a few snacks. My sister and I decided to try this on a whim, we called and were able to make it just before 11 and they were able to let us on! They gave us a heads up about things to avoid in the water. They provide all the equipment needed but bring a towel. Great experience overall for a great price.
