Overview
The Best Dolphin Cruise in Alabama
This is the Premier and by far the most popular cruise we offer. Our two-hour Orange Beach, AL dolphin and nature cruise combines all the features of the dolphin cruise with extra floating time through the hidden creeks of the back bays. We spend the first hour locating and observing our local dolphin pod, and we spend the second hour far up in the swamps.
Our knowledgeable tour guide and captain point out the local flora and fauna. You may see osprey and their nests, herons, bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, and maybe even an alligator or two. The Explorer allows us to get as close as safely possible to the banks and the local marine and wildlife. Because the boat only needs 16 to 18 inches of water underneath, we can sneak into creeks and swamps where few other boats can go, providing you with a truly unique and memorable experience.

This tour was very informative and relaxing. Captain Ray was knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. A full bar is aboard so the adults enjoy as well as the kids. We saw the dolphins, ship wrecks and other wildlife. Fun for all ages and highly recommended.

We had a great time on the dolphin tour. The Captain and crew did a great job. The captain was very informative and knows EVERYTHING about dolphins! He found quite a few Individual dolphins for us to see and photograph. We were able to see a beautiful sunset too. Our bar tender also did a great job!

Absolutely amazing! The crew was great. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We were staying in Navarre, FL, but all of the dolphin cruises in that area were closed. It was a short drive from Navarre, and it was totally worth it! We saw multiple dolphins! They swam right up to the boat. The kids all got to drive the boat. It was a great time. We would definitely go again when we are back in the area.

We had a ladies group go on the 1.5-hour tour which they graciously extended for us. It was fantastic. Both gentlemen who guided us were especially informative and delightful. The ladies were genuinely impressed with the knowledge and their ability to pilot the boat to enhance our experience. The dolphins were great! So many it was hard to count and the extra information we received was fantastic! Check-in was easy, there was no waiting, easy on/off, I have to admit, there was nothing about this tour that could have been classified as not up to par. They excelled in everything!

We are a family of four with two girls of 9 and 5. The 2 hour dolphin and eco tour was exactly what my wife and I were wanting for our kids. We did not want to go on the ocean because our girls can get motion sickness. We stayed in the bay on a boat that was very smooth and we saw dolphins within minutes of leaving the dock. Another boat left the same time we did but they rarely stopped to get good views of the dolphins and appreciate them.
The crew was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. They even helped take some family pictures.
I have no problems giving them a 5/5 and would totally recommend them.

Booked this at last minute when Shrimp Festival was cancelled and glad we did. This was once of the most enjoyable and fun experiences we did in Orange Beach. Captain was extremely knowledgeable about dolphins and he knew where to take us to see a lot of dolphins…

We had the most fun! Saw a lot of dolphins. Capt Will is so knowledgeable. You will come away knowing more than you did about dolphins. His “ sidekick”/bar tender was very entertaining. This was not a rushed tour and we enjoyed every moment of it. It was great they allow you to bring “a brown bag lunch” with us since we booked the noon tour. They take a pontoon boat and we had 18 Pple on the tour so plenty of room to move around and stand to see the dolphins. Not crowded at all. FYI there is a restroom on board. As well as many benches w/backs under the canopy cover for those who do not want to be in the bright sun the entire 2 hrs.
