Would you rather watch them swim around gently in their natural habitat or watch them jumping and playing off of our very Powerful, Wave Creating Dolphin Surfing Machine?! Powered by 700 HP with a Top Speed of 30 Knots! We are the only boat on Tybee Island that can do both! Note: Dolphins are wild animals and at times they will surf but not ALL the time. We call it the real world - not SeaWorld. Book your tour with Captain Derek today!
