Creating Unforgettable Memories

We had the BEST time on our dolphin tour with Captain Trevor!!! My kids loved him so much and he was VERY patient with all their questions. He also told them fun stories and let us have some time at the beach. 10 out of 10…definitely recommend!

We took a sunset cruise with Paradise Adventures and it was spectacular! The kids were in heaven seeing dolphins and riding on the net at the front of the catamaran. What a cool experience. We were in heaven sampling the delicious drinks (try the Privateer Punch!) and watching the beautiful sunsets! A storm rolled in and the captain even got us back just in time for us to make it to our car before it started raining. Highly recommend for a fun family experience.

This trip was AMAZING! I have never seen so many dolphins and I highly recommend this. Gordon kept us all entertained and kept the kids involved...he especially looked after my 11 year old and had him help dock the boat! And Jai (spelling?) was an amazing bartender and kept our drinks full. Great photo opportunity for dolphins.

Amazing trip on the center console boat with Trevor!!! We saw so many dolphins, stopped at beautiful shell island and found sand dollars and enjoyed being out on the ocean! Definitely recommend Paradise Adventures Watersports during your time in PCB!

Amazing!! One of our best experiences in Florida. We decided to end our week long trip with a sunset cruise on the catamaran with paradise adventures. We were surrounded by dolphins. Listening to live music. While watching a sunset. It was beautiful.

We had an incredible time on the Sunset Catamaran Cruise with Paradise Adventures. The boat was so much fun, especially when they opened the sails when we were out in the Gulf of Mexico! We enjoyed our rum punch, the crew, the music, the overall experience and the sunset was magnificent, too! If you want to have a terrific and exhilarating adventure in Panama City Beach, this is the one for you!!!

Best trip ever! Book this if you want a great time! Book this for my wife birthday and had a amazing time. We saw so many dolphins and got great pictures! Captain was great and even let my wife drive for a while for her birthday! Great crew with great view and great drinks.

My wife and I were in PCB and wanted to do a Sunset Cruise. This cruise fit the bill to a T and the pier for boarding ended up within walking distance of our lodging accommodations. The staff was very professional, safety was stressed appropriately, and the cruise left on time and return on time as well. It was a cool evening, but the sun came out and it was perfect. The captain and staff were fabulous. We ended up seeing a school of sting rays as well as numerous dolphins. It was a great experience. Highly recommend Paradise Adventures Catamaran.

The captain, first mate, and the boat were first class. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. We got to see the dolphins up close and took some fantastic sunset pics right on the catamaran. I would recommend this trip. Also liked the smaller catamaran the Footloose. Less folks but VERY stable boat for the trip.

Good price and great cruise. The crew were friendly and helpful. Largest pod of dolphin I have ever seen on a bay cruise. We also saw deer along the beach at St. Andrews Park.

See what our guests are saying about this tour, snorkeling with our family 💙🤿.

We had an incredible adventure! I had never snorkeled before and now I can’t wait to get back!!! We had our 8 and 5 year old kids with us; they did so well!

Awesome crew and definitely recommend!

My friends & I did this as part of my bachelorette trip. We had so much fun. Our crew was Jose and I believe Jalene, Adrian, & maybe 1 or 2 more. They were all great! None of us got sea sick, but there were a few on the boat that did on the way there, and the crew was quick to help them out.

The drinks and food were good! I definitely recommend!

Culebra Snorkeling Tour Experience

This tour is a MUST when coming to Puerto Rico for the first time. the sights are incredible and the tour guides are incredibly trustworthy and attentive. my friend got seasick on the boat ride and everyone was so willing to help and make sure that she was okay and still enjoying the experience. We loved it.

Fun excursion to Culebra with a great crew!!

Had a blast today at Culebra. The crew was exceptionally attentive and fun. Everyone gets a star! My only complaint was it ended too soon!!

Hello I truly wish we could have been in the same group

Loads of fun!
