Are you looking for a fun and affordable way to explore the area? Join the largest excursion boat around. They offer various exciting options, including daily dolphin watch cruises, bay fishing trips, scenic sunset cruises, marine ecology tours, fireworks cruises, school field trips, Port of Brownsville tours, and private charters. Come aboard and enjoy a memorable experience on the water. If you're looking for a unique experience, the Marine Ecology Tour should be on your list. During the tour, a net is lowered over the back of the boat and dragged across the ocean floor to collect live marine specimens such as starfish, stingrays, seahorses, crabs, shrimp, squid, and various small fish. You'll be amazed by the marine life they collect, which is then placed in an observation tank at the back of the boat for a closer look.
