A small, local operation that treats every trip like we're showing friends around our backyard.
Lighthouse Dolphin Tours was built on a simple idea: the best way to see St. Simons Island is from the water, with someone who's spent their whole life on it.
Our captains are U.S. Coast Guard–licensed and have logged decades fishing and guiding these same creeks and sounds. We don't run a fleet of packed boats — every trip is small, personal, and led by someone who knows where the dolphins play and where the herons nest.
This isn't a packed party boat. It's the unhurried coast — the one that's been here long before the resorts.
Resident bottlenose pods feed in these rivers all year — we know where to find them.
Miles of spartina grass and tidal creeks — the largest salt marsh on the East Coast.
Bald eagles, wood storks, herons and nesting shorebirds along the barrier islands.
Time it right and the whole sound glows orange — the best seat on the island.
We'd love to show you our corner of the Georgia coast.
