5Captain Pablo was a font...
Captain Pablo was a font of wisdom about Jekyll Island and nature. He was also funny. A very enjoyable experience!
5Very good and worth the price
Wonderful. A+++. Well worth it.. had a great experience
5Dolphins to the left, we headed left
Everything smooth and informative. The narrator was Capt Pablo and the Piolt was Ms Sam. They was easy to understand and really nice. When we saw a pod of 4 - 6 dolphins the pilot stayed in the area of the dolphins for awhile giving us ample opportunity to take as many pictures as we wanted / tried to get before continuing with the tour. The tour location is easy to find, but you have to pay to enter Jekyll Island so I dont recommend making this a last minute excursion plan other things to do and see while there.
5Worth every penny
Captain and crew were friendly and fun. Engaging. Able to see dolphins clearly near boat. Delightful time
5A great time on Jekyll Island
Went on the dolphin tour for the fifth time in 5 years today. Yeah we’re kind of obsessed! Today we saw by far the most dolphins we have ever seen . Captain Pablo and first mate Dale said it was the trip of the summer! Both of them are so good and entertaining. We still laugh at all of Pablo’s stories. We ran into a large pod and they stayed close to the boat for abut an hour! Unbelievable! We highly recommended this tour as a great way to spend a couple of hours.A great time on Jekyll Island
5A must on Jekyll
Our group went here on a middle school field trip. We had the best time. Dale, Paul and Van were so so good with the kids. Very engaging and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

About Golden Isles
The Golden Isles are Georgia's southern barrier islands, St Simons, Sea Island and Jekyll, with live oaks, salt marsh, lighthouses and long beaches.
The Golden Isles are a group of barrier islands off the coast of southern Georgia, made up of St Simons Island, Sea Island, Little St Simons Island and Jekyll Island, with the old port of Brunswick on the mainland. Live oaks hung with Spanish moss shade the roads, and wide salt marshes, the Marshes of Glynn of Sidney Lanier's poem, run between the islands and the coast. Causeways link St Simons and Jekyll to Brunswick.
