Captain Nate and his wife are the perfect team to give you a delightful dolphin experience. When you call in to schedule, you are greeted very personably by his wife. She helped to schedule the tour and said she’d be available at any time for any follow up questions until we boarded for our trip . Captain Nate clearly is very knowledgable about the wildlife in the area, particularly the habits of the dolphins. He has a great eye for spotting the dolphins and knows when they’re hungry and when they’re ready to play. Two times on our trip, he was able to get the dolphins to dive through our wake for several minutes. The dolphins seemed to be having as much fun as we were. From the time that we called to schedule to the time that we left the boat, I cannot imagine a better experience.

Captain Nate was great. Informative and professional. Found the dolphins for us to see and did his best to avoid some showers! Fun tour!

My wife wanted to see dolphins, her only real goal for the tour, and she got her wish. After some searching, not only did the captain find a pod, he was able to get them to play with us in the wake of the boat. Everything we asked for. Thanks for the great memories!
