Full description

Enjoy a beautiful sunset while enjoying one of our signature cocktails! There’s no better way to end the day! Join us aboard our two-hour Orange Beach, AL dolphin and nature cruise aboard The Explorer, our 40' Pontoon Style Vessel, This cruise combines all the features of the dolphin cruise with extra floating time through the hidden creeks of the back bays. 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 more. 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 where few other boats can go, providing you with a truly unique and memorable experience. Dolphin sightings are guaranteed, or you next trip is free!

What a fantastic tour...

What a fantastic tour -captain Skully was very informative and we had a great time seeing bald eagles, local birds and of course dolphins which followed us jumping behind the boat

10/10 Experience

My crew & I LOVED this experience with Captain Smitty! He is the perfect person for these type of tours. Knowledgable about the area, the dolphins, and all around made the boat ride so much fun! We had littles with us and he even let them “drive” the boat—such a special memory we’ll have forever! We weren’t seeing many dolphins at first, but Smitty was determined to uphold his promise of dolphin sightings. We ended up going a little off course, catching some speed and had a small pod of dolphins follow along side the boat! It was beautiful to see. If i’m ever back in Gulf Shores, I’ll be booking this experience again!

Excellent adventure

This was such fun. We were upgraded to the catamaran boat. Beautiful sunset and we saw so many dolphins. Drinks were reasonably priced and the views were awesome. We'll worth it
