The trip was great. We saw loads of dolphins as advertised, the tide was smooth, and the Captain was very informative and always chatting with the guests. The only thing to be improved upon for me was the bench seats on the top deck were covered in soot from the diesel stack, and a few of my party had it stain our clothing.

We absolutely loved the Sunset Dolphin Cruise aboard the Vagabond. Everything ran right on schedule. The deck and ship mates were great and our Captain and narrator was fantastic and very informative! We took a cruise with a different company last year. While it was good, we had no idea what we were missing!

The cruise was punctual, starting right on time as scheduled. The presenter or captain, who accompanied us throughout the trip, was extremely knowledgeable and provided informative commentary, which enhanced the overall experience. Furthermore, the audio system was of good quality, allowing us to hear the presenter clearly without any issues. One of the highlights of the cruise was the opportunity to see dolphins. We were fortunate enough to witness a mama dolphin swimming alongside her calf, which was truly a privilege. It was a beautiful sight and added an extra touch of magic to the experience. However, I do have a few criticisms regarding the seating arrangement. As my boyfriend and I arrived early for boarding, we were able to secure seats upfront, offering an unobstructed view. Unfortunately, this was not the case for everyone. Those who arrived late were forced to sit in the middle
