We made a reservation for a dolphin cruise about a week in advance. We had 6 extremely excited children who had been looking forward to seeing dolphins for months. We live 50 minutes from Olin Marler, so we had to get an early start as our cruise was scheduled for 9 am. We were told to arrive at 8:30. At... More

I bought tickets for the Olin Marler dolphin cruise on Groupon and then planned a trip to Ft. Walton Beach around it. My family (mom, dad, son-14,daughter-4) all enjoyed this cruise. The staff/crew is very friendly and genuinely seem to both love their jobs and want you to have a wonderful experience. We had a lot of fun feeding the... More

This was our first dolphin cruise and we absolutely loved it. The dolphins swam right next to the boat many times during the cruise. The crew were so genuinely nice and enthusiastic. I will definitely take another tour with Olin Marler in the future.

There were 22 people on the boat, several repeaters and several first timers like ourselves. Fished 5 different locations about 2 hrs off shore. Each location people... More

Would go again... Very nice crew and caught alot of fish.. Loved it. We caught trigger fish, amberjack, grouper, red snapper, white snapper and other kinds of fish! They even cooked us some delicious fresh fish on the way back to the dock!

They clean fish, take them off of line, you bait your hook, but bait is provided. Things to remember: bring cash to tip boatmen, a towel to clean hands and a cooler with snacks and drinks.

My husband & I went on the dolphin cruise and thoroughly enjoyed it. The weather was extremely cold and rainy so our tour was delayed but it all worked out for the best. We were able to see the dolphins off the boat but due to the stormy weather, the sea bottom was murky so the glass bottom part of... More
