The dolphin cruise was a neat experience. The only thing I found as odd was the dolphins were in one spot. You see them when you first depart and you see them when you get back. It took a little of the thrill out of it. With that said, it was really cool to see them jump in their natural... More

If you thought that you had to go to SeaWorld to see dolphins perform, think again. All you have to do is reserve a spot on the Dolphin Cruises Cold Mil Fleet. It is the greatest dolphin cruise around. We will definitely go back the next time we are in Orange Beach. Be sure and bring your camera or video... More

A first class operation from start to finish. My wife, daughter and I took this trip after reading the positive reviews and we were not disappointed. The boats are super clean and the staff professional. They cater to all ages, but really make kids feel special. You WILL see dolphins and lots of them. They run two boats together creating... More

If you're vacationing along the Alabama-Florida coast, you gotta see the dolphins. This wonderful cruise fills the bill, and more. The boats are clean and well-maintained, the crew is professional and engaging, and there's plenty of dolphins out there. The most memorable part of the whole thing, however, is that it's a surprisingly relaxed two-hour cruise around the bay... there's... More

.....and the boat ride isn't too bad either. The dolphins came to play within minutes of us leaving the dock. After several minutes of watching these amazing creatures glide, roll, and leap through the water, the boat slowed to a coast which allowed time to take in how beautiful this part of the world can be. Its a cool trip... More

Wonderful, wonderful!! The boat looked new and very clean. The crew were great, esp with little children. And you will see dolphins!!! We were out about 15 min. and here they come. They use 2 boats and dolphins like to ride on the waves between the boats. First time we have done something like this and we were not disappointed... More

This adventure was well worth the price of admission (don't forget the $2 off coupons available in the tour books). Don't be nervous about sea-sickness because it is a non-issue on this outing as the boats don't really go out on the ocean, but rather an inlet area. If it is a cooler day, be sure to bring a sweatshirt... More

Our first dolphin trip with our. 3 yr old. It was wonderful. 5 dolphins at one time surfing and jumping in the waves. It was Definately worth it and I have no reservations recommending to anyone. One person on boat was mobility limited with a Cain and they easily accommodated her. Great crew.

I can't say enough about the fleet. Professional to say the least! If you do anything at all when your down in the Orange Beach area take time to see a beautiful part of nature. The dolphins are beautiful. I was so surprised that the dolphins were so close to us in there natural habitat. TIP #1) DON'T forget the... More
