Wonderful 1.5 hour cruise. Captain very knowledgeable about dolphins and the are, had incredible dolphin sightings, great weather. Definitely would book again!
5Vagabond sunset dolphin, cruise amazing
We did the Dolphins sunset cruise and it was amazing. It must’ve been 20 or 30 dolphins all around us and the crew was excellent as well. They were as excited as we were and very knowledgeable. We highly recommend the vagabond Sunset dolphin cruise. Just bring snack, there was very little for purchase on board.
3Not great
Boat was old. The captains voice was super loud. They forced you to make your picture taken prior to getting on boat do they could later walk around selling you pictures. The only crew member of the boat was walking around selling pictures and he was the only one to get snacks and drinks from the bar. It actual cruise was okay you just stayed right in the bay the entire time.
5Always a great time!
This is our 3rd year doing this and still love it! Ian was mate last year and now captian of the boat. He did a fabulous job and we were blessed with a beautiful evening, amazing views of sunset, dolphins and 3 shrimp boats! Loved it!
5Dolphin honeymoon delight
Great bang for the buck and absolute great tour guide and we got to see a lot of dolphins

About Hilton Head Island
Hilton Head Island is a South Carolina barrier island of wide beaches, live-oak forests, golf courses and salt marsh, with a Gullah heritage.
Hilton Head Island lies off the coast of South Carolina's Lowcountry, a barrier island shaped like a shoe, with about twenty kilometres of Atlantic beach on one side and salt marshes on the other. It is named for Captain William Hilton, who sighted its headland in 1663. Resort communities such as Sea Pines are planned among live oaks and pines, and the red-and-white striped lighthouse at Harbour Town is the island's emblem.
