We had such a great morning with Captain D! We chose the early morning private tour to beat the afternoon heat, and it was definitely the right decision. The weather was beautiful, the scenery was incredible, and we really enjoyed the conversation along the way. We were lucky enough to see several dolphins, and our stop at Morris Island was a huge success—we found multiple shark teeth and had so much fun exploring the beach. From the smooth pick-up to the easy drop-off, everything was seamless and stress-free. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and Captain D made the trip both relaxing and memorable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and enjoyable way to experience Charleston from the water!
We booked a private tour and it was worth every penny. Nick was amazing and we enjoyed the ride tremendously. Saw a good number of dolphins and learned a lot about the area too. Perfect length of time on the boat too, about 1.5 hours. Highly recommend! Thank you Nick for a fun adventure!
It is truly an amazing experience! The weather was iffy and Captain D gave us all kinds of options and guidance- despite a few raindrops, it was a SPECTACULAR EXPERIENCE- Dolphins, tons of sea-loving birds, beautiful views and a 150 yr old lighthouse. Highly recommended!!
This was an incredible and amazing experience! The scenery was breathtaking! The captain was knowledgeable, courteous, and comedic.
We got to see a baby Dolphin, and had a beautiful sunset. Guide was super friendly and accommodating. We had a great time.
Great experience seeing and learning about the marsh! Captain D made it fun and informative, and definitely worth getting up early!
Captain D was amazing! We did a private tour, and he spent lots of time pointing out wildlife and explaining the history of the Morris lighthouse. He walked the beach with us pointing out various shells and shark teeth. We highly recommend this tour!
This experience was hands down, the best night of my entire bachelorette trip! This was such a special evening, and Jody played a huge part in that. We are so grateful for the memories he helped create. If you’re looking for an experience you’ll remember long after it’s over, book with Jody. We will absolutely be back.
My husband and I took our grandkids they loved it. We have done this before with other friends and family and will definitely do it again! Our Captain Jody was great!! He made it very enjoyable for sure!
Had a great time with Capt Billy! Highly recommend!
