##About Our Sunset Tour is a great opportunity to have one of the best possible views available for what many would agree is one of the most spectacular sunsets in the world. On our Sunset Tour, you will still have the chance to get up close views of dolphins and visit Shell Island. On our tours you are able to bring small coolers with food and drinks, however please avoid bringing glass onboard. If there is a special event or place that you and your group would like to do or see during your Sunset Tour, we are able to make certain accommodations for you.
##How we are different & why to choose us! Unlike other companies, we use smaller, 6-passenger boats that enable us to tailor our tours to exactly what you want to do–instead of going on a massive tour boat to be crowded by 100s of people, and trying to stand over strangers just to catch a glimpse of the dolphins or other marine animals.
