This eco tour is a great time for all ages! With over 170 residential Atlantic bottlenose dolphins and around 400 nomadic dolphins passing through Hilton Head waters, it is no wonder dolphin sightings are so much fun.
Our tours take dolphin watching to a new level. Our tour guide knows most of our local dolphins by name and will introduce you to them as we come across them. We will teach you how to tell them apart, too!
Not only will you get to know the dolphins as individuals, but you will also learn about bottlenose dolphins as a species and how they adapt to our local lowcountry ecosystem. We will explore the waters of Broad Creek and the Calibogue Sound in search of dolphins, birds, and other sea life.
