Highly recommend this cruise! Every employee on board was extremely kind and professional and we had a blast. They created a friendly atmosphere and even had us laughing during the safety briefing. You can easily socialize with the crew and other passengers or just keep to yourself and take it all in.

We were some of the last to board and noticed there were still seats available at the very front of the boat. I’m surprised these weren’t the first to go because we loved sitting there—great views and great place to take photos. (That said, there’s not a bad seat on the boat.)
In the summer, the 4:30 cruise is perfect. The sun is a little less intense and makes for lovely views. You can have a glass of wine on board and then walk to dinner after the cruise.
If you want to wear a hat, make sure it’s attached to you somehow so it doesn’t blow away.

I think our captain was named Dan. Again, he and the rest of the crew were absolutely fantastic. Would love to do this again and only wish it were a longer trip!

This is a great way to enjoy an afternoon in warmish Charleston. This was the second time we took this trip. We like being out on the water. It was great fun for us

Let me start by saying that they had to cancel my original sailing, and they were very accommodating about re-booking the sailing. I also had to run to the boat because I had no idea where to go and the agents on the phone radioed the boat to wait. Now for the not-so-great parts: There were no clear directions to the dock, I think saying that it's to the left of the aquarium would be extremely helpful. I booked this tour for my son to see some dolphins, and while I understand the crew have no control over that, we saw only a glimpse of a fin. I literally had to ask about dolphins, the crew didn't mention dolphins at all until some of the other ppl on the boat saw some. I also thought the crew would point out some sites since this is labeled as a sight seeing tour. That didn't happen either unless someone asked a question. It was very quiet and uneventful until they turned on music maybe 30-45 minutes into the ride. Lastly, Everyone was greeted warmly and the Captain came to speak with them. He did not chat at all with me or my 4 year old. A bit of a disappointing experience if I can call it an experience at all.

An excellent crew made the sail a delight! Attentive to any and every need, friendly and eager to help, and to be helped by the kids on board. The captain was professional, friendly, and entertaining. The boat is well maintained and beautiful.
Of course, a sunny day with plenty of wind, didn’t hurt the experience any.
Enjoyed this immensely.
