If you are looking for a no fuss, laid back experience - this is it! The two guys running our boat were super cool and knowledgeable. They played yacht rock... READ MORE and offered free beer. We saw dolphins frolicking around and got a tour of the marina where Wicked Tuna was shot. We took the sunset cruise which was gorgeous. Don't forget a jacket - the boat picks up decent speed and as the sun goes down, so does the temp. I highly recommend this experience!

May 27, 2026Sunset cruise was perfect! We saw so many dolphins and the captain made sure that we saw even more! The tour through the sound was beautiful. ... READ MORE Going through the Wanchese Harbor and hearing the mate talk about the history of the fishing village, and the amazing businesses that are now known around the world. Private Yacht and Charter boat building and the safe fresh seafood harvests that supplies our restaurants, our locals and visitors, and a large number of others across the world. With the great music and atmosphere, it was well worth the cost and a great tip!! Capt. Randy and his mate Carson do a great job!!

May 17, 2026We had a wonderful excursion in the sound. A pod of dolphins obligingly frolicked around us for a good 20 minutes. The view of Bodie Light from the boat was... READ MORE stunning. The ride was smooth and the captain a font of area knowledge. It was a highlight of our trip to the OBX.

May 10, 2026We had taken a dolphin tour in 2024 and it was awesome . We were disappointed that this tour was not available during our stay this year. OBX Tiki... READ MORE Tours was recommended by that company. They did not disappoint. We were happy to find that this tours Captain was Jay, the same person from 2 years ago. Again this time he was entertaining and very knowledgeable. We saw new baby dolphins and full grown ones. Thank you for an awesome ending to our week in OBX.

April 30, 2026Captain Randy was awesome! We had a great experience with him! He gave us facts, and information on the area, with a little comedy. He made the tour so much... READ MORE fun! He took us to an area he heard some dolphins were spotted, and the information was accurate! We seen so many dolphins! It was amazing, something I will never forget. We had our 4 kids (ages 8-17) and they all enjoyed it too. We picked a horrible week to go to the OBX, it was windy and cold all week. One thing I loved about Captain Randy is that he didnāt compromise our safety over earning a quick buck. We had a sunset tour scheduled, but the winds started picking up real bad that day. So he rescheduled us at an earlier time (he called us very early in the day so we could make scheduling accommodations). Throughout our trip as the winds started picking up even more, he decided to cut the trip short. With having my children in this boat, I am so thankful he made this choice. The water was getting very choppy, and the waves were getting bigger. Iāve been on a boat in unsafe water conditions by a captain who didnāt prioritize safety and it was a terrifying experience. Thank you Captain Randy for not only being responsible captain but for being a fun captain!

Had the most wonderful event on the OBX Tiki Time with Captain Randy. He went out of his way staying flexible with the weather being a consideration on 11/1.

October 25, 2025My family and I had a blast on this dolphin boat tour. The captain and his crew mate were very informative and fun to be around. We saw many dolphins... READ MORE on the ride within the first 30 minutes. Half of the tour consisted of going through the marsh and getting to see many things that you wouldn't be able to see regularly. While riding along side the marsh, we could see the Bodie light house from a distance. The tour also had great music playing, we definitely got our money's worth and tipped generously. The captain and his crew mate definitely deserved it. I believe we seen over 50 different dolphins on the tour. Some got really close to the boat to where you could see them through the water. 10/10 would recommend.
