Dolphin Watching in Virginia Beach

Want to get up close and personal with the abundant dolphin population that graces the coast of Virginia Beach? The Virginia Beach Aquarium offers 90 minute cruises to view the bottleneck dophins in their natural habitat. The Aquarium has studied these magnificent dolphins for years to learn more about their habits, migration patterns and life history. Their cruise, which leaves from Rudee Inlet Harbor, Virginia Beach Fishing Center, 200 Winston Salem Ave, is both fun and educational. The 2008 summer rates were just $18.00 for adult (12 and over) and $14.00 per child (11 and under). Tours run April through October. Whenever I have out-of-town company, this is always up on the list of recreational activities. I confess, however, I love it so much I have been known to take the cruise by myself, just to get my water and dolphin fix! The boat gently cruises offshore up the resort strip, sometimes as far as the Fort Story lighthouses! In addition to the informative dolphin watching, you get an unparalleled view of the hotels and North End homes.
