    FAQs

    Bring water, sunglasses or a hat, and a jacket in cooler months. Wear clothes and shoes that can get wet. You can bring your own drinks.

    Plan for drop-off and pickup only in front of the shop—there is no long-term parking there. If you need to park for the full tour, use the public boat landing and avoid trailer-only spaces. If the landing is full, you can park on Folly as long as all four tires are off the street and your car faces the flow of traffic, unless signs say otherwise.

    Yes. Dogs are welcome, but you need to let the operator know in advance.

    With an impressive track record of consistently happy guests, this boat tour operation has clearly mastered the art of showing off Charleston's waterways. The captains, particularly Davis, Will, and Richard, earn praise not just for their piloting skills but for their engaging personalities and deep knowledge of the area. Guests rave about abundant dolphin sightings, including the special treat of watching strand feeding, plus opportunities to hunt for shark teeth and shells at Morris Island. The experience seems flexible enough to work for different occasions, from family outings with young kids to bachelorette parties. Popular offerings include tours to Morris Island Lighthouse and the Outer Banks filming locations, and captains appear genuinely enthusiastic about sharing local wildlife and history. The vibe is relaxed yet attentive, with thoughtful touches like good music playlists adding to the overall enjoyment. It's the kind of tour where repeat customers keep bringing their visiting friends back.

    Best thing we did all week! Captain Tony was fantastic! Found us so many dolphins right beside the boat. Lots of wildlife and sights to see! Thank you for the memories. Can’t wait to come back!
