We went from historic cypress beach cabins to modern multi-million dollar mansions. We started with a great sight-seeing cruise through residential waterways and through the inspiring barrier islands south of Pass-a-Grille. This Florida dolphin cruise was very enjoyable, and the captain and crew were welcoming and friendly.
