Get Up Close with Dolphins in Destin

Our personalized dolphin tours will have you near these amazing creatures within minutes. We are very sensitive to dolphin behaviors, and unlike larger tours, our excursions are smaller and more intimate. We do not scare or harass the dolphins, and many of our local pods have learned to trust our team.

We offer three unique ways to experience dolphins in Destin:

  • Jet Ski Dolphin Tours – Feel the thrill of riding a Yamaha VX Deluxe Jet Ski while getting up close to wild dolphins in their natural habitat. Each Jet Ski seats up to 3 people, with a maximum weight limit of 400 pounds. Our expert mechanic keeps all Jet Skis in prime condition for a safe and smooth ride.
  • Tipsy Tiki Dolphin Tours – Relax on our floating tiki boat while cruising the harbor in search of dolphins. This laid-back tour combines fun island vibes with dolphin sightings.
  • Island Runner Sunset Dolphin Tours – Enjoy the stunning Destin sunset while watching dolphins play near the coast. Perfect for families or anyone looking for a scenic and relaxing evening on the water.

Besides dolphins, you may also see other wildlife, including sea turtles, black manta rays, bald eagles, ospreys, and more. Each tour is led by a local guide who knows the area and the animals intimately.

These intimate tours give you a unique view of dolphin behavior. You may see a mother tending her calf or a curious dolphin surf alongside your Jet Ski or boat. The dolphins often approach on their own, showing their natural curiosity. Don’t be surprised if one seems to smile at you—just remember to smile back!

All tours are designed with safety in mind. Riders must be at least 18 years old to operate a Jet Ski, and passengers must be at least 5 years old. Each member of our team has been born and raised locally, giving them a deep knowledge and appreciation for the waters, wildlife, and communities of the Emerald Coast. Bring your camera and get ready for an unforgettable experience!

Jet ski dolphin tour
It was probably the best money that I have ever spent in Destin. Staff was awesome from check in til completion of tour. Brayden was our guide and we saw lots and lots of dolphins in several different places. If you really wanted to, you could almost pet the Dolphins. They were everywhere!
