About this activity

Experience Pensacola Beach's most reviewed dolphin cruise aboard the 50-foot Frisky Mermaid — 3,000+ five-star reviews and a crew called the Disney of the Beach. Your private two (2) hour cruise through the Santa Rosa Sound and Pensacola Bay will have you searching for wild Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, osprey, herons and Gulf Coast marine and wildlife.

Our USCG-licensed captain and Mermaid Crew know exactly where to find them and share FINtastic facts about dolphin behavior, local marine life, and Gulf Coast history throughout the cruise. High deck vantage points make dolphin spotting easier for everyone aboard.

Morning departures offer calmer waters and easier spotting. Sunset departures let you watch the sky shift from blue to gold while dolphins cruise alongside the boat.
