Boat was packed - not an open seat and no room to move anywhere. There was no way that we could have move to the back of the boat to see the few dolphins that were seen that day. We have seen more dolphins at the long boat pass than we saw today. Disappointing.
Great Dolphin Experience!!

The Captain was awesome. He shared his knowledge of St. Pete, Dolphins and the sea. His jokes were corny but sometimes funny.
Awesome

Philip_J, Mar 2024
The number of dolphins we saw & how close they got to the boat. The Capt & mate were very personable & did a great job
The Dolphin Racer is well worth it.

I called in to Viator to use my 20% rewards I earned for referring others who booked with them. I was told there was “no available spaces” during that tour and would I like to book on a different date. I had family visiting from Minnesota and that was the only day they had available. After 35 minutes talking to Viator I hung up and went online and booked it on the same trip I was told had “no available spaces”. The boat holds 100 people and there was 35 of us on it that trip. Not only is their marketing discounts a joke, but their customer service people are liars ! I will never use Viator ever again and would caution anyone else to be aware of this problem.
A nice way to spend an hour and a half!

It was nice to see the dolphins jumping around . I enjoyed the boat ride, music was spot on and the crew was great!
Great way to see area by water and the dolphins!
Brandy_S, Feb 2024
Pretty awesome seeing the dolphins jump in the air behind the boat! The captains were very entertaining and shared a lot of fun facts!
What an experience!
Karen_M, Feb 2024
It was such an amazing trip. We got to see the dolphins playing in the wake over and over again. COOL!
Dolphins love to play !!!
Dennis_P, Feb 2024
We saw dolphins less than 5 minutes from the start. The captain turned the boat around to see if they would play. They sure did. Saw more Dolphins than any other time on the excursion.
Awesome experience
Mary_F, Dec 2023
We saw so many dolphins! So close! They were so beautiful! Loved seeing them having fun. There was a baby in one pod, soooo cute! The first mate was so funny and personable. The Captain was good and true to his word kept the sea spray down, we still got wet but barely. They made it seem as if we could get soaked but, it was just lightly wet and so worth it! The Captain gives a good tour and commentary but knows when dolphins are there nobody listens so he does not talk ha ha. This is on a open boat so don't go thinking You will be protected from wind, sun and sea soray. But so worth it. They charge so little for the best experience! Truly amazing! I loved every minute of it! And the music they play was excellent and very fitting! Jimmy buffet and the stones too. Dolphins are my favorite and I saw plenty of my favorite! You will not regret this ... Do it!
Great to see the dolphins not in a tank!
Rich_S, Nov 2023
We love visiting St Pete’s to go on the dolphin racer. We arrived early and was told only 7 booked, we were told they don’t sail if 10 or less people on the boat. We were given the option of returning on another day or paying for additional 3 tickets. They did say this does not happen often as usually they are booked. We decided to pay the extra and so glad we did!! We had the boat to ourselves. The skipper and his mate who took us out were very professional & very knowledgeable of the area We ending up in seeing a family of dolphins including a little baby one. Such an amazing experience and to see them free in the ocean rather than a tank was fantastic.
Amazing dolphin experience
Tiffany_T, Oct 2023
