Orange Beach

Close your eyes and daydream with us for a moment. Imagine a blue-sky day aboard a boat surrounded by shimmering water. Seagulls dive into the water for their dinner, truly a fresh catch. Friendly dolphins dance in sequence, just a short distance from the boat, and Caribbean music sets the tone for a relaxing dolphin cruise through Wolf Bay and the surrounding waters of Orange Beach, Alabama. There’s no reason to daydream when you can experience this treasure first-hand with the Cetacean Cruise team.

Lyn and the crew were great. They found the dolphins and made this a fun adventure for all on board. Will take this tour again when back in the area.

Captain Lynne, Tina & Mark provided a fun 2 hour tour of dolphin sighting as well as eagles, blue heron, pelicans & other wildlife. They were friendly & ensured everyone had a chance to take pictures & spot wildlife & dolphins. They sought out areas where the dolphins are. We spotted them in 2 different areas & some of the dolphins swam on the waves of our boat. Excellent day & tour. Would go again.

The crew was super friendly and made the trip fun! We didn’t see any dolphins on the first half, but then they showed up! Amazing!! We had a great time!

The trip and scenery was worth the cost, and seeing the dolphins up close was just an added bonus. The captain and crew were a lot of fun. We would do it again if we are back here again.

Great dolphin tour. We will definitely take more tours when we're back in town. The crew was very warming and the captain was informative.

We took this tour because it was supposed to be educational, but there was very little narration and we learned nothing new. The ad said we would explore hidden creeks and back bays. We did not,even though the captain mentioned the heavy boat traffic on the main water body numerous times. We saw few dolphins and then only the tops of their backs. They went under water in 2 to 3 seconds, so we did't get any pictures of them. The reasons we rated this cruise a 2 instead of a 1 were because the crew was friendly and it was a beautiful afternoon for a boat ride. S & L

I brought my husband, some of my family members, and my best friend to Orange Beach to help celebrate my husband’s birthday. We enjoyed watching the dolphins. It was the first time I had ever been that close to dolphins in their natural habitat. The captain, tour guides, and assistant were excellent. Their hospitality and sense of humor were comforting and made for an enjoyable experience. Last but not least, the music was great as well!

Kristen_A

Such a wonderful experience, we saw more dolphins than expected and they came up close to the boat. The crew was very professional and fun, the snacks and drinks were a great addition, and the music was awesome! We definitely recommend them for a dolphin tour!

After carefully reading all the reviews, my family and I booked our 2-hour dolphin and nature eco tour from Cetacean Cruises. It was all we had hoped for and more! We wanted a cruise that showcased wildlife in addition to dolphins, and we saw a variety of birds (osprey, blue heron, even an eagle's nest)! The boat itself, although spacious, only holds 36 passengers, so it was nice to be able to hear and see everything without fighting through a lot of people. Captain Lynn was personable, funny, knowledgeable, and great with kids (he let all the kids "captain" the boat)! The crew, Tina and Carrie, answered questions, served drinks and snacks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, waters and snacks for $1), and worked hard to make sure everyone was taken care of (even offered to get a blanket for our 6-year-old, who was cold). Better than all of that, though, was the dolphin show -- we probably saw 10 - 15 dolphins, many very close to the boat. At one point Captain Lynn got them swimming, jumping, and playing in the boat's wake. It was quite a show, and we considered ourselves very blessed to see these amazing, graceful animals up close.

The wind and waves in my face. Very warm day friendly crew. Less boat traffic would have helped the dolphins.
