Anyone done the Dolphin Encounter Cruise?

I am planning our 10 day trip to WDW and Orlando area for next year. We will also be going w/inlaws. I want to get the most out of my vacation and wanted to do other things besides WDW. I ran across the Dolphin Encounter Cruise on Expedia. It picks you up from your hotel, takes you to Clearwater Beach, eat lunch at Clearwater Hilton, play on beach, takes you out on a boat ride to encounter dolphins, then drops you back off at your hotel . Has anyone ever done this? It sounds very fun but is it safe for kids/teenagers to be out in the ocean on a boat? (not sure what size boat as it doesn't state).

I'm not sure what cruise charter they use but yes, they're all safe and fairly large craft. the sea screamer in clearwater marina is the largest speedboat in the world.

I've done a dolphin cruise in Virgina Beach area, but not Clearwater. I took my son when he was only 4 and he had a blast. The boats were very safe and they didn't actually go that far out from the shore.
