How did you discover this activity?

I was searching for fun things to do in Orange Beach with kids. I found dolphin cruises on the TripShock page, and knew we had to do it! I looked at several and ended up booking the Sunny Lady.

When did you book your tour compared to the departure date?

I booked the cruise about a month in advance as I was planning my trip.

Why did you choose this activity?

I have been on a dolphin cruise before and I knew my sons (10 and 11) would love to go on one and see dolphins up close!

How did you get to the activity location?

The docks were easy to find and close to our resort.

What was your experience with the activity’s staff?

The captain and crew were very friendly. The captain lets all the kids aboard drive the boat after the tour and my sons got to hold his parrot, Lucy!

Highlights or memories you and your group will take from the trip?

We picked a great day for a dolphin cruise! This was the last day of shrimping season, so there were lots of shrimp boats around. The dolphins were following the boats because they throw out everything they catch that isn’t a shrimp. There were so many dolphins following and catching the fish that were thrown back!

There are a total of seven baby dolphins right now, and we were lucky enough to see four of them! The captain knows every dolphin by name, and has watched most of them grow up.

Would you recommend this activity to another group like yours? Why or why not?

I would definitely recommend this tour for other people. It was a very fun experience for me and my sons.
