I couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend the afternoon. The captain was very knowledgeable and the crew was so kind. I have a 5 year old who asks a million questions and they answered every single one of them :) it was so beautiful and relaxing. We didn’t see any dolphins because of the recent storms but I personally was ok with that. The only thing I would add is there are steeper steps and an incline to get to the boat so it’s not really designed for those handicapped or with weak knees. But it’s very affordable and kid friendly and a wonderful attraction! Also parking on a busy night is very scarce so I’d try to get there early.

My family and I took the ferry to Sand Dollar Island in July, we didn't realize we would be on the Island for two hours but we made do and had a blast. The very next weekend, my boyfriend and I made another trip out to the Island with bathing suits on and towels in hand! It was so much fun going out and searching for sand dollars. An the price is great for basically 3 hours of fun! We are planning a trip this coming up weekend! Great for anyone!

Super. Only found three, but it was fun. Definitely would go back. In fact, I might go back during this vacation. Staff and crew were extremely friendly.
