Virginia Beach Dolphin Tours & Private Wildlife Cruises

We provide a comfortable and safe vessel to cruise around looking for dolphins in Virginia Beach. We also provide a cooler with ice and some of the best mates around. These mates work hard and work for tips so be sure to take care of them, 20% is customary.

From late spring through early fall, dolphins are most active in the warm coastal waters of Chesapeake Bay.

Absolutely! Kids love seeing dolphins, and our charters are safe, family-friendly, and educational.

While we can’t guarantee sightings, our experienced captain knows where to find them—and we spot dolphins on most of our trips.

You should bring clothing appropriate for the season. In the summer shorts and t-shirts is fine but in the winter you will want a hat, coat and maybe even some gloves. We always highly recommend that you bring rain gear as you never know when a storm can pop-up.  You will also want to bring plenty of water, snacks and/or food.  Also don't forget sunscreen but please no spray sunscreen as it turns the boat pink! We recommend children under 90lbs bring their own lifejacket as availability is limited.

Yes, and we suggest having the camera at the ready as you never know what we will see. A phone will work but it is best to have SLR camera with a telephoto lens. We can typically get pretty close but sometimes their acrobatics are a bit from the boat. 

All charters are weather permitting and will be up to the Captain's discretion if the trip needs to be rescheduled.  All bookings require a 25% deposit to secure the date.  This deposit is non-refundable once within 30 days of the charter date, unless you purchase trip protection.  Requests to change a trip date are subject to availability and may not always be accommodated and may incur a reschedule fee. Rescheduling your trip does not reset the cancellation window. If your trip is not rescheduled by the original trip date it will be marked as a cancellation. Any cancellations by the customer within 31+ days of the charter date will be refunded the cost of the trip minus any CC/booking fees. Any cancellations by the customer within 5 days of the charter date will result in a charge of 100% of the balance of the trip. 

All charters are weather permitting and will be up to the Captain's discretion if the trip needs to be rescheduled. If we cancel for weather we will do our best to reschedule you promptly. If we can not find a suitable date we will refund your deposit.

Marijuana is NOT allowed on the vessel. It will be throw overboard if found. We will immediately return to the dock with NO refund. Waterways have federal jurisdiction and all vessels fall under federal regulations. See article for questions
