  • Captain was really great with the kids!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/23/09
    Our family really enjoyed this 2 hr trip! We went on the sunset cruise. (6-8pm) I highly recommend this time, as it wasn't too hot and the sunset was really beautiful. Bring your cameras.
    We saw lots of dolphins!!

  • Great Family Experience
    By Lesa B, 07/13/08
    My family has taken the Dolphine Cruise twice. My boys were able to sit in the Captain's chair and get pictures of them "driving" the boat. Lots of dolphins to be seen. The glass bottom boat really isn't much but the overall experience is well worth the trip. Also there are lots of free tickets to be had as amenities with area vacation rentals so be sure to ask about them.

  • Very nice
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/08/07
    I've been on the Southern Star for times. I'm stationed at Eglin Air Force Base, just across the bay from Destin, and my family loves taking that cruise.

    The captain gives a very nice presentation about intersting local area information and personalities. I've spoken with the captain every time we've taken the cruise, and he ...

  • Loved the cruise!!!!
    By Jennifer, 05/26/07
    We took the 3p-5p cruise. We loved it. It was very informative. The kids had a ball getting to see all the dolphins! It was a tad expensive but worth the experience. Definetly worth putting on the trip agenda!

  • An hour would have been enough.
    By ReneeO, 09/11/06
    I enjoyed the ride but it was a bit long. I was ready to go back to the dock after an hour. I enjoyed seeing the dolphins but I could have done without the cruise around to look at more water. The glass bottom wasn't really a glass bottom but a few glass panels that you couldn't see through. Maybe I just get bored easily! :)

  • Fantastic!! We loved it!!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/17/06
    The Southern Star Dolphin Cruise is a yearly favorite of our family. We especially like the morning or evening cruises. The boat was very clean and the crew members were very friendly and courteous. Capt. Steve is very knowledgable of the dolphins and the local area. The water was crystal clear and beautiful blue-green. The dolphins came right up ...

  • Glass Bottom Boat???
    By Cassie, 07/01/05
    When I hear the term Glass Bottom Boat, that's exactly what I expect. That was the most dissapointing aspect of this boat ride. The glass bottom part was tiny and absolutely nothing could be seen in the water from it. We did however see many dolphins swimming alongside the boat. The crew was very friendly. Nice for a boat ride and spotting dolphins but if you are looking for a real glass bottom boat, find another.
