Had a great dolphin cruise with Capt Forrest and First Mate Chip. Plus, we actually saw dolphin! I will definitely recommend Southern Shores to anyone wanting to have a good time on the water with a knowledgeable Capt and crew.

Great tour!! Saw lots of dolphins. I really liked the fact that the catamaran isn't so huge like some tour boats. Stopping on an uninhabited island was a plus.

Captain Jason and First Mate Tyler were very fun, friendly and knowledgeable. They served us fun frozen beverages, we saw dolphins and enjoyed the sunshine. 100% would recommend.

We had a wonderful time. Everything was fantastic. Captain played music for us and our cruise was full of enthusiastic people. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone. We were given highlights of the area as we set out to see the dolphins. While we were reminded that nothing is guaranteed, we were rewarded with many sightings of those fantastic creatures. Boat was clean and safe and the cruise was made even more memorable by only allowing a limited number of participants. It was so much better and more friendly to be with a smaller group of people than to be crammed on a bigger boat with double the number of people! Don't hesitate to take this catamaran cruise...you'll love it!

We did the noon dolphin cruise. We had a great time! I really enjoyed the smaller catamaran over a larger boat. Along with that fewer people. I know everyday is different and they don’t know if or how many dolphins they may see. We got lucky and saw soooo many. I would guess about 30. We had perfect weather. Being on a smaller boat the captain was able to get pretty close to them. He also took us by a shrimp boat. That was neat to see. Forest was a great captain. Very personable and fun. The first mate (I’m sorry I don’t remember her name) was also great. I highly recommend!
