Beautiful Sunset and dolphins. Shane the boat operator was great and shared local facts. The trip was very smooth and we spotted a couple of eagles. The ponies were visible but too far.

Kate_M

It was a good trip - we saw eagles, water fowl and ponies - three or four different groups of ponies with their foals! The captain was very helpful and had some good stories to tell.

Great tour with laid-back guide and guests. We saw many ponies, bald eagles nest, and lots of other birds. Definitely worth it! Would have liked a bit more history of islands.

The boat provided was not a boat with a cabin of sorts as in descriptive writeup. With wind and low temp not the place to be and made it hard to heard pilot/speaker

A wonderful experience. The captain was so nice and shared a lot of information with us about the area and wildlife. We saw a bunch of ponies! Also, we were literally the only boat out on the water.

We had a great time on the Assateague Explorer. Shane knew the best spot to view the ponies and get close enough without disturbing them. Beautiful views of the bay and the sunset.
