Full description

Get an up-close view of the resident dolphin pod in Orange Beach on this dolphin cruise. Find out about their behavior, habitat, and relationships within the pod from your onboard guide.

Head to the marina to board The Explorer, an eco-friendly boat, then set off into the back bays of Orange Beach where between 50 and 70 dolphins reside. By paying close attention to them over the years, the activity provider has named many of them.

When you find them, your guide will introduce you to the dolphins by using their unique dorsal fins as identification. Listen to fun facts about the pod and enjoy guaranteed sightings of the dolphins in their natural habitat; if you don't see them, you can go on another cruise free of charge.

During the cruise, stay refreshed and comfortable with a full-service cocktail bar and restroom on board. Once you’ve said goodbye to your new water-loving friends, return to the marina where this cruise ends.

The crew provided an awesome atmosphere and were very accommodating for kids. They make the dolphin finding interactive and fun. They were able to not only find dolphins but get them to surf the waves of the boat. Absolutely awesome experience for grown ups and kids.
