Yes. This is a one-way water taxi, so book both your “to” and “from” trips to ensure space aboard the vessel.
Arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time so you have time to park, bring luggage to the dock, and load it onto the boat.
Pack light. Space for luggage and cargo is limited, and by booking you agree to the baggage policy.

Captains Bryan and Matt have built a serious reputation along the Savannah coast, and it's easy to see why. Repeat customers are a consistent theme here, with some guests returning year after year and others booking a second trip before their first one even wraps up. The experiences range from shark tooth and Megalodon fossil hunting to island exploration, dolphin watching, and sunset cruises, and both captains seem equally skilled at reading what a group actually wants and tailoring the trip around it. What comes through strongly across the reviews is the depth of local knowledge these guys bring. Guests frequently mention learning about the area's history, wildlife, and natural environment in ways that felt genuinely engaging rather than scripted. Finding Megalodon teeth seems to happen more often than you'd expect, and for those who came specifically for that, it clearly delivered. Families with young kids, couples, friend groups, and solo travelers all report feeling comfortable and well taken care of on the water.
Bryan, owner of Lowcountry Drifters ferry/tour service- went above and beyond for our crazy, chaotic friends group during our recent trip to Daufuskie Island! Bryan was friendly, easy going, adaptable, and quite knowledgeable about the area and its local history and ecology. He made our trips to and from the island as easy as possible and took us on a wonderful history/ fossil hunting tour as well. I would recommend using his services anytime! We had a great time and hope to come back sometime soon!
