Captain Brody

Captain Brody

At 14yrs old I started SCUBA diving and found a love for the water. Little did I know how much that would directly affect my life.

At 18 I started off working in kitchens and racing Soling sailboats on Wednesday nights and weekends in Lake Michigan. After seven years in Wisconsin my culinary career brought me to South Carolina where I continue to cook, fish and boat as often as possible.

In the past year I've decided I want to spend my time sharing my knowledge and love for the ocean with all.

Sharing is Caring!

What a wonderful experience with Captain Brody for a Hilton Head dolphin tour. First, he was super responsive when booking. During the cruise, Captain Brody was engaging, entertaining and knowledgeable. He knew exactly where to go for the best viewing of not just dolphins, but manta rays jumping out of the water. You can tell he knew the best spots because the larger commercial vessels were following him! Great experience for our family, highly recommend.

My family has been on many dolphin tours, but this one takes the cake! We saw soooo many dolphins, and a few of them got right up next to the boat! Even a couple of rays made an appearance for us. Captain Brody was attentive, knowledgeable, and humorous. Thanks, HH Dolphin Tours!!

We loved the disappearing island tour! Would definitely recommend. Saw dolphins, jelly fish, starfish and many shells. Our 8 year old daughter loved it too. Brody was a great boat captain.

Big thanks to Captain Brody for giving us an amazing experience crabbing, fishing, and hanging out with dolphins. My son's were able to catch multiple fish during the short tour and their confidence soared afterwards. My daughters demanded I get my own boat as well after having so much fun catching the wind. Captain Brody was a great guide and taught us a lot along the way.

We booked our crabbing tour very last minute as in at 8pm the night prior and Capt Brody luckily was able to accommodate our family of 6. We expected to learn about crabbing but he also taught us about fishing. On top of that, we got visited by dolphin Charlie. It was a private tour that all the kids enjoyed. Kids caught at least 6 fish and were very excited about the dolphin. Capt Brody was a very cool guy and his pricing is also quite reasonable. Strongly recommend.
