This is a great option if you’re looking to get out on the water with a small group and not a big party boat. But we did not see any dolphins and I don’t think the captain was really looking for any. I understand that it’s hit or miss, but from the start of the trip at the dock the Captain kept repeating “I don’t guarantee to see dolphins” and on our return back to the dock he sped right through “dolphin playground” and then we “toured” the harbor because we had extra time. The snorkeling was ok. We were in a spot with only our group so that was enjoyable, but i think they are better places to snorkel in the keys. Mate Aiden was wonderful and friendly.

We had a fantastic day with the Echo boat and crew Captain Brian and mate Aiden. They have a great boat and we really appreciate their service. Saw a pod of dolphins and enjoyed the snorkeling. This is a first rate experience. I highly recommend it. The boat seats 14 people or so and was not crowded like many of the others we saw. Aiden is very knowledgeable of the water and area and provided great conversation of it all. Thank you both.

Brian (Captain) and Victoria (mate) did a great job! We saw dolphins immediately and had a super fun ride to and from the reef we snorkeled. Highly recommend.

Great fun trip! Aydin and Bailey were great. Very accommodating and helpful. We had ages 9 to 75 and everyone had a great time

Plus: Saw dolphins frequently and close-by. Minus: The snorkeling site was a far away but not worth the trip: low visibility, very few fish, no colors. Only lots of sand-covered sponges.

If you’re 70+, this adventure is for you! If you’re like my group that consists of 28-38 year olds, book something else! We’ve been on numerous boat trips 4 hours or less and this is by far the worst experience. We rode to the dolphins in silence, no music was allowed. We did see dolphins that were apparently “sleeping.” Then we rode another 30 minutes to the snorkeling area where I personally was hit with a rope and flag and told “sorry I guess it’s too late for me to let you know you’re in my way.” Then as we are on the journey back, we are told there’s no music to be played. Meanwhile, we circled the area that we were parked for 40+ minutes to avoid coming back before the time was complete. Sierra who was the main helper was great and tried to make the trip best as possible. Brian, however, was an absolute joke. He was nothing but a smart mouth captain who didn’t care anything about the experience. He was clearly there to only get through his four obligated hours. Tom, I highly recommend you look elsewhere for a captain.
