The views were amazing. We saw many dolphins… Captain Joe did a fantastic job at making my son’s 10th birthday a fun 3 hour trip. I highly recommend and we will be back next year!!!

Captain Joe was so much fun and a great tour guide. We learned a ton and saw numerous dolphins. The best part was when the dolphins played in our wake! It turned out to be a beautiful day and not only was it exciting , it was relaxing! We had a quick stop at a beach which was lovely, with what powdery sand. He allows you to design the trip to your wants and needs. And he made us feel very safe. If we ever return, we will definitely be booking with Captain Joe again.

Captain Joe was an amazing guide to take us out and show us St. Pete beaches coast. He gave us a lot of history and information about the area. We got to see both manatees and some dolphins. He was so personable and took great care of us. He even gave our 8 year old daughter a sand dollar and some shark teeth he had collected as a parting gift. We highly recommend him!

Such an amazing trip! This is our 3rd and can't get enough! Captain Joe is not only very knowledgeable of the surrounding wildlife, homes, and many islands, but also super safe and prepared for anything. We have learned so much about the area and have loved seeing all the dolphins, etc. You can't go wrong with these Tours. Can't wait to go back again!

INCREDIBLE!! I booked this tour for my parents anniversary and we had an amazing time. From the very beginning, captain joe set the scene for a fantastic ride. Listening to reggae, we saw dolphins, sharks, manta rays, and more! It was clear he was passionate about the tours, boat and area, making it so much more enjoyable for all of us. Highly recommend!

mike_3dp

The private tour was the way to go, it was Captain Joe, my wife and I. Captain Joe is terrific. Very knowledgeable, friendly and personable. Also, safety is foremost in everything he does which is reassuring. We loved seeing the dolphins and learning about the homes and bridges on the bay. I highly recommend Captain Joe and Salt and Mist Sea Tours. Don’t miss this tour if you are in St. Petersburg!!

The perfect experience. Captain Joe was an excellent guide- knowledgeable, relaxed, and engaging. We saw a number of dolphins and heard about the history of the area and a who’s who of the waterfront properties. Highly recommend.

I finally made the move from Maine to Tampa 11/22/23 and spend a lot of time in st. Pete. My daughters came to see me from Maine for a week and they love the water. I knew a boat tour was in order and I knew exactly who to reach out to. I’ve been on boat tours with Salt and Mist Sea Tours myself but I wanted my daughters to experience it. Captain joe took us on a sunset tour and my daughters were elated with happiness. Captain Joe gave them an amazing experience. His knowledge of the area is very impressive. My daughters can’t wait to come back and see more dolphins and go on another tour with captain joe. I highly recommend salt and mist sea tours. ❤️🙌🙏

I have been using salt and mist boat tours for the past 7 years and every time it gets better and better. Captain Joe is by far the best captain in the gulf. His trips are always fun and informative. The boat is always perfectly clean. It’s so easy to board -I have taken my 90 year old father on a few trips and he has no problem boarding. I can’t say enough great things about salt and mist tours and Captain Joe. Create great memories .This is one not to missed. Simply the Best❣️
