This is a very good value as the cruise lasted about 2 hours...Captain Mark was very informative and told me lots of things that I did not know about the area and dolphins. The weather and the scenery were great. This was the second time I have taken this trip and I would absolutely do it again.
– George C. | TripAdvisorCaptain Mark and Thomas were friendly, the boat was clean, and we learned things that we hadn't known before--thanks to Captain Mark's excellent and informative narration of all things HHI. We will do this boat trip again, next time with our kids.
– Pat B. | TripAdvisorWe took a sunset cruise and it could not be more happy with the experience! It was absolutely gorgeous and we saw tons of dolphins. Captain Mark is very knowledgeable. It was truly a pleasant evening!
– Bonna K. | TripAdvisorIt was just wonderful...Captain Mark was most informative about the history of the island, and the development of Hilton Head as a community. And yes, we did see several pods of dolphin, and Captain Mark gave us plenty of information.
– Martin E. | TripAdvisorRecently took my fifth cruise with Capt Marks Dolphin Watch....I enjoy this informative and delightful cruise so much! The trip is narrated with so many facts about HHI, I am constantly amazed. The ship is very big, not fast, not scary, no motion sickness. Just a really enjoyable trip.
