“If you are looking for an activity, you can end your search here because this is it!!! This experience was priceless and for only $60… in this economy?! I booked the trip and just expected to get some exercise in, see a nice sunset, and maybe a dolphin if I was lucky. To my surprise, we saw dolphins the majority of the time we were looking for them! Including baby dolphins… There were also swimming birds that followed us while we were kayaking… it felt like something straight out of a movie lol. The entire experience was unreal. So relaxing and there was so much to see! I will cherish…”
Spend about four hours on a private Sarasota boat with Captain Joe and Cosmo, searching for dolphins and manatees, then stopping at a sandbar, beach, or tiki bar. Bring your own drinks. Coolers, ice, and water are provided.
“Booked though Viator and owner said he doesn’t work with them ! So we were at the dock ready for pick up when we thought we were going out for a fun Expensive experience we were told he knew nothing about it , as we booked 4 days ago , makes no sense that it is advertised that you have to book with this company but the owner didn’t know he had a trip planned ! Highly dissatisfied and will NOT recommend, sad that you ruin our day that we had planned for .”
Pick a hull, pick the water you want to be in, or decide whether you want them wild.
