With normal circumstances, this is how most of our tours are laid out: unless requested otherwise, we will take about a 15-minute ride out to the Gulf of Mexico, to the beautiful crystal clear emerald waters off the coast. Most of our dolphin encounters will happen in this area due to the abundance of bait and the clarity of the water.
