What to expect:
You'll meet Captain Solomon at The Crab Shack restaurant on Tybee Island. There will be a brief safety brief before departure. Winding through the marshes during twilight hours in a most exceptional way to enjoy time in nature. As we wind through the marshlands, creeks and rivers in search of the local resident dolphins. We are ecompassed by what was once the heart of The Savannah River Delta. If you zoom out enough you will see what looks like the roots of a majestic old tree stretching 24 miles from Hilton Head SC to Wassaw National Wildlife Refuge, This is a salt marsh estuary one of the largest in the world.
The dolphins in the area are used to people coming out to pay them a visit so they usually stay in the area long enough to watch them dive, splash and play. Depending on the time of year, you may even see a few babies swimming with the pod.
The Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin is the most common dolphin around the area. Did you know that when they sleep, they shut down one half of their brain so they can stay alive?! One side does the breathing while the other half makes sure everything is still working. Fascinating!
You are welcome to bring dinner and beverages with you on the trip. Don't forget your camera! You'll catch one of the most beautiful sunsets you've ever seen.
