My family and I took Captain Dave’s tour and had a lovely time seeing marine life, learning about a shipwreck and spotting all the zoo animals on the marine safari. The boat was safe, clean and festive. Thanks again Dave! James2025-04-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great time for a bachelor party out on the harbor. He was super chill and safe Susana2025-03-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Took the sunset cruise the other day and it was amazing. Captain Dave is awesome, he knows a lot about the history of the Channel Islands and the different marine life around. We were fortunate to see dolphins right next to our boat! We will definitely be back! Rebecca2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Took the 90 minute harbor cruise with Cap'n Dave at 6:30pm on March 24th and it was amazing! Dave is a lifelong local with strong connections in the community, which allowed him to share lots of knowledge and history of the area. He's full of interesting facts and stories, which he shares throughout the tour. On top of a really fun and engaging host, we got to see lots of local wildlife - to include sea lions (in the water and on the shore) and dolphins! We were up close to them and a variety of seabirds. Dave's tour is really budget friendly compared to similar options in the area. We really got a lot out of the experience and would highly recommend to others interested in such an activity. Jason2025-03-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Dave was very personable. The ride was smooth and very enjoyable. We got to see dolphins and my other wildlife. I will go back again. Keeps you eyes out for the giraffe and gorilla. Julia2025-03-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Dave was an excellent and super friendly tour guide.

We went on the Marine Safari for my birthday and it was absolutely amazing. Captain Dave was so accommodating, knowledgeable and personable. We really enjoyed our beautiful sunset cruise and appreciated the Captain's knowledge as well as his company to laugh and joke with. Plus we learned alot while having so much fun. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone and all ages even if you are local or just visiting this area. Lisa2025-02-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

My family of 5 had the best time, he interacted with the kids and kept good vibes going! We encountered tons of wildlife and the true beauty the harbor has to offer. We’re definitely going back out soon. Thanks Captain Dave!
