Absolutely a MUST to go on if you visit Hilton Head. Captain Mark is full if interesting historical facts about Hilton Head which he talks about on the boat tour
We took our teen and tween boys on Captain Mark's Dolphin Watch Sunset cruise last weekend. A good time was had by all. We enjoyed seeing several dolphins up close. The boys really only used their phones to take videos of the dolphins and selfies in front of the sunset. Parenting WIN!
Captain Mark greeted us warmly and shared interesting information during his talk. The boat was sparkling clean with plenty of space between us and other passengers. We felt safe at all times on the trip. Overall a lovely evening on the water and family time we all will cherish. Well, my husband and I will. Who knows with kids these days?
My husband and I went on the 3oclock Dolphin watch Cruise, the experience was very nice! Captain Mark and his team were very friendly and helpful. great job! Captain Mark make the tour very interesting and educational. He is very knowledgeable of the area. Beautiful and we even saw dolphins !! We would highly recommend this for all ages !!
A very good time. Captain Mark is very knowledgeable about dolphins. We saw lots of dolphins and got a history lesson about the Island and other sights. Everyone should do it once. Or more. When you get off, there are numerous good restaurants within walking distance.
A nice large boat with lots of cover for those hot days! Saw a few dolphin on our trip. Capt. Mark is a local and knows his way around. Crew members are courteous and helpful. Bathrooms on board. Water and snacks available for purchase
First dolphin cruise on Hilton Head. We loved traveling in the "Holiday" with Capt. Mark.
No reservations needed. I had called beforehand, with a couple questions and had zero issue. Courteous and all questions answered. We pulled up about 25 mins before 11, free parking. Short walk to the dock. Paid when boarding. They accept card/cash. VERY reasonable pricing!! $20 per person for almost two hours? Yes, please!
The boat is large. Two levels. VERY clean. Spacious. Has a snack bar and restroom is on board also.
Capt Mark was a wonderful host. He narrated most of the ride. Historical and general points of interest, great sense of humor , down to earth. Laid back. When we saw dolphins, he made sure to slow/turn so everyone had a chance to see.
Nothing felt rushed. It wasnt crowded. The weather was fantastic. We saw a number of dolphins, birds, and even saw a manatee before we left the dock. Also got a kick out of seeing other people parasailing, jetskiing, and boating.
We loved it and *Will absolutely * return and recommend them to others.
I don't understand how anyone could possibly complain about not seeing dolphins in other reviews. They are wild animals, they come and go as they please. Nothing is guaranteed. Come on now! Use some common sense. Even if we hadn't seen any wildlife i still would give five stars bc of how great the ride was. Relaxing and fun. Great way to see different parts of Hilton Head.
Thank you so much for today!
We went on the sunset, dolphin, fireworks cruise and it was the highlight of our vacation so far. Perfect night and so much fun! Highly recommend!!
Went on the dolphin/sunset cruise with my hubby on our 1 year wedding anniversary to Hilton Head . It was very nice and relaxing. Loved the captains narrative. It was funny and entertaining and Bruce was very lively. Fun time and will def be back again. If visiting Hilton Head put this on your to do list.
Our family had the BEST time on a sunset cruise with Captain Mark! It was great to hear the history of the Island, have him note points of interest, and call out to us when there were dolphins (and a baby!) within sight of the boat. Reasonably priced and a relaxing, beautiful way to end the day on HHI.
My first experience with capt mark was when I was in grade school, now my children are lucky enough to enjoy his dolphin cruises. If you want to experience the adventures of the waters that surround Hilton head island, why not cruise around with someone who is a staple to its growth and its surrounding for almost 40years?!! Thanks for all the memories from way back then and now!!
Best dolphin tour on the island. Captain Mark is awesome!
Great tour with lots of great info - and lots of dolphin sightings
This was the best experience we have had on a dolphine tour! The boat captain was so awesome he is great & knows the area really well. We saw multiple sets of dolphins, it was amazing! Our three kids had a blast! We bought super sweet t-shirts on the cruise and the kids keep asking if they are clean yet.. lol .. It was so awesome. It is a must when visiting Hilton Head:)
Good time, good value.
we saw so much wildlife (dolphin, birds, marshes), the plantations, other islands, etc. narration was informative and interesting. comfortable boat. personable crew. we'll be back next year.
