Harborwalk Village Marina, Destin
The Refuge's annual dolphin cruise is the highlight our year. The emerald waters of Destin Harbor, the sun, the wind and what is a sure bet, the company of pods of dolphins make for a wonderful adventure. Watch dolphins weave through the waters of the Harbor and dance alongside the Southern Star as she makes way. There should be plenty of baby dolphins running alongside mama as we enjoy the beauties of an afternoon on the Gulf of Mexico.
Enjoy live music by Santa Rosa Beach acoustic artist Dannica Lowery. Food, soft drinks and adult refreshments are provided and we'll be raffling off some great prizes. Last but not least, there will be a special appearance by our live Animal Ambassadors.
Our host is Capt. Steve Wilson who pioneered Destin's first dolphin cruise in 1994. Captain Steve designed and built the 150-passenger glass bottom boat, the Southern Star (www.southernstardolphincruise.com) that will be carrying us on the cruise. More than 8,000 dolphin sightings have been experienced aboard the Southern Star over the past 17 years.
Tickets are only $30 for adults and $15 for children under 10. Tickets can be purchased at the Refuge or online at www.ecwildliferefuge.com. Boarding will begin promptly at 2:15 p.m. at Harborwalk Marina, Destin, next to the Lucky Snapper. We'll be back at the slip by 4:30 p.m. Please call the Refuge at (850)650-1880 for more information.
