Overview
Get out on the waters of Destin on the "Hydrojet" for the chance to spot local marine life. As you cruise the waters of the harbor, East Pass, and Gulf of Mexico, keep your eyes open for dolphins, stingrays, turtles, and more. Once we find marine life we stop and let you take pictures and video. If the waters are choppy, you'll also enjoy wave jumping for a little adventure on board. This is a great way to take a break from the beach and experience more of Destin
- Explore the Destin coastline on a "Hydrojet" boat ride
- See dolphins and other marine life in their native environment
- Boat will stop for photo opportunities
- Short tour doesn't take up much of your day

There were lots of waves when we went so we got soaking wet, which was super fun! The dolphins were literally everywhere! It was such a wonderful experience. We plan to come back next time we’re here!

As we were standing in line waiting to get on the boat they canceled our ride they said because of mechanical failure but the boat continue to run normal schedule I believe they overbooked and just told us that they have mechanical failure the boat never stopped running the rest of the day and the scheduled time that we had was not even on their schedule at the dock
Response from Host , May 2022
The boat did have a mechanical issue we were booked the 1pm and 2pm that's why i can't offer you to reschedule that trip ,. The mechanic was called on the trip where it happened and rushed here to fix the boat within a hour time frame so we could continue running the rest of the day. We are sorry there was a mechanical failure for your trip but if we would’ve continued the boat would have broken down so it needed to be fixed before we continued to run for the rest of the day. Your trip time at 12pm its not on the board because its sold out already and i ask you if you want to reschedule the later time or the next day but you said just refund the money.
It's a must do

Seeing the dolphins and when we picked up some speed I sat up front so I kept getting splashed lol it was fun, my mom had a blast, my daughter was scared at first but it turned out great for her!
Makes you want a boat😁

Being that I love being on the water, I naturally enjoyed this. I loved seeing the dolphins...the ride was smooth. However, I did expect the boat to go a little faster and sharp turns and such...the tite makes you think it's going to cut donuts in the water and do cool tricks🤷, but it didn't. I did LOVE the fact we went by crab island....being that I have always wanted to see it up close! The staff was very friendly and nice. Overall I really enjoyed and the members in my party did as well!
Response from Host , May 2022
The hydrojet cruise the crab Island ,beach,gulf of mexico looking for dolphins or any wildlife to see and also we jumped waves if theres a wave,the hydrojet is a fast dolphin cruise but it is not a speedboat and the speeds are regulated by the coastguard. We also do not do crazy turns nor advertise it. Were glad you had a good time and sorry if there was a misunderstanding.

We love the water! Hard to enjoy when in a smaller boat (jet ski) with all 3 of my grandsons. 6,7. & 9 we did activities all day even a helicopter 🚁 ride. This was there Favorite. The music, of course the getting wet. But the BEST to them was not having a life have holding them down. Not to worry they have them handy and ready to go. (In case, however doubtful) A MUST DO! Family, A Date, heck I’d go alone!!💖
SUPER UNHAPPY

They offered wave jumping and a thrilling ride up the gulf coast. That didn't happen. We saw dolphins with another boat and turned around saw crab island from far away and went right back to dock. Very disappointed
Response from Host , Apr 2022
We are sorry you didn’t have a good time. We strive hard to make sure every trip is enjoyable. We are not a thrill ride we are a dolphin cruise so we do stop and see dolphins And let you take pictures and provide info about our bottlenose dolphin. Crab island is a sand bar and very shallow water only 1-2 feet deep so we get as close as we can without the chance of running aground. We’re sorry if you didn’t experience wave jumping. Please keep in mind the waves change from day to day and we do jump waves if it is choppy water but there are times the gulf is calm and there aren’t any waves. Again we are sorry it wasnt what you expected.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
