One of the most popular ways to enjoy the water is with AJ’s Daytime Dolphin Cruises . Perfect for families, this cruise offers an up-close look at playful dolphins in their natural habitat. With the water being crystal clear and the weather comfortably warm, there’s no better way to spend an October day than out on the Gulf, spotting dolphins and soaking in the incredible views. Plus, our crew is known for making the trip fun and interactive, offering plenty of entertainment for kids and adults alike.

For those looking to wind down and enjoy the beauty of a Gulf Coast sunset, the Sunset Dolphin Cruise is the way to go. As the day draws to a close, you’ll cruise through the serene waters, with dolphins often making an appearance as the sun sets behind the horizon. It’s a relaxing and awe-inspiring experience that’s perfect for couples, families, or groups of friends. Enjoy complimentary wine, beer, or soft drinks as you take in the stunning colors of the sky and water. (Alcoholic Beverages will be limited to 2 drinks per adult. Thank you!)
