"We have been to New Quay for the past 4 years and every year we make sure we go on the dolphin spotting boats. They are the only boats we go on as they are so good! Always polite, useful information, stops with amazing dolphin views if they are spotted. They have a good rule where if they are on a certain side of the boat some have to stay seated so those behind can see! My 4 year old, my partner and I loves these trips highly recommended 5 stars."

"Really friendly retail staff and crew helped make everything so clear. Fully licensed and vetted craft and just watching them on and around the boat helps you feel secure and in safe hands. Really knowledgeable captain who also provides info on the coastal features and the dolphins. We had a few come right up close and underneath the boat - such a memorable experience and a highlight of our holiday. Seriously considering doing it again before we leave!"

"We went for the 1 hour excursion Wasn’t expecting to see so many dolphins, as soon as we set off there were dolphins, right next to the pier, the most time we went without seeing a dolphin was probably 10 mins, would recommend, staff friendly and very informative, rear a review where someone got wet and wasn’t happy, you will get wet because your at sea that’s what happens, would definitely go again and maybe take the 2 hour excursion."
