Captain Jack was amazing. He was extremely well-informed. He allowed us to choose what was important. We chose dolphin sightings for most of our time."
We'll help you get as close to dolphins, as possible, while also ensuring their safety. The dolphins can decide how close they want, and how many interactions they want. We practice passive observation. This means, in simple terms, that we allow dolphins to come and visit us. Our dolphins at St. Andrews Bay have an amazing ability to interact with our guests and are very playful.
Dolphins are most active at dawn, between 10 a.m. and noon, and from 2 p.m. to dusk. A good pair of telephoto lenses or binoculars can be extremely useful for spotting dolphins.
Islamorada and Key Largo are popular locations for seeing the animals in the wild. The Florida Keys are a popular breeding ground for dolphins, so you can see them all year.
