The boat was was okay. However, I did not like that you couldn’t pick your seat. We sat in the middle of the boat and we couldn’t really see the dolphins because the people that had the side boat seats would stand up. So the boat ride was okay, but I wouldn’t recommend spending $27 to see other people’s heads.

Laura, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. The seats on the dolphin cruise are first come, first serve. So if there is a particular place you'd like to be seated on the boat we suggest arriving earlier that way you're at the front of the line and have a better advantage to finding the seat of your choice. You can definitely get up and walk around the boat to see better views. While the boat IS covered, it is completely open all the way around for viewing. Thank you for your feedback, TripShock!
