What you'll do:

Get ready for a high-energy dolphin and sightseeing adventure aboard the Dolphin Racer in the St. Pete Beach area. You and your crew will cruise the scenic waterways surrounding St. Pete Beach and the Gulf Beaches while your captain shares local stories, coastal views, and fun narration along the way.

Bring mini coolers with your favorite drinks, grab your seat, and keep your camera ready. As the Dolphin Racer creates its signature wake, wild dolphins often swim, surf, and jump alongside the boat, creating one of the most unforgettable moments you can add to a bachelor, bachelorette, birthday, or group trip itinerary.

It’s the perfect daytime activity for groups who want something fun, easy, and memorable before dinner, beach bars, or a night out.

Why we love it for your party:

• Dolphin moments everyone will talk about — A true St. Pete Beach experience with dolphins surfing and jumping near the boat.

• Bring mini coolers with drinks — Easy for groups that want to bring their favorite beverages onboard.

• Perfect before the night out — A fun daytime activity that doesn’t take over the whole itinerary.

• Open-air sightseeing — Enjoy fresh air, coastal views, and Gulf Beaches scenery.

• Captain narration — Local stories and sightseeing details keep the experience entertaining.
