Unforgettable boat ride with wife and dog! - Captain Jody was the BEST! It was me, my wife, and our American Fox Hound on a private tour. It was SOOOO awesome that we could bring our dog with us! Jody made it a really laid back and easy going experience for us and our dog. We saw dolphins, had a chance to walk along the beach front on an island we went to, and learned about the animals in the Folly River. It was an incredibly easy tour to navigate and do. Jody took care of everything, and we just sat back, relaxed, and enjoyed the sights! HIGHLY recommend this for anyone visiting the Charleston area!

Wonderful Experience - Beautiful sunset tour. Our captain was charming and personable, and his knowledge was impressive. We saw the lighthouse, multiple dolphins, and the most beautiful sunset I can remember. Nick is a gem, let my kid drive the boat.

Best Trip Yet! - We had an amazing time our boat captain was incredible and very knowledgeable. It was so easy to hop aboard. Enjoy the sites and even a nice walk on a beach. We have booked many of these during our travels and I will say this was the best trip yet.

Traveling with Captain... - Traveling with Captain Jody was the best! He shared his knowledge of the local wildlife and dolphins we saw. We had a full crew of family visiting for the first time and it was one of their favorite parts of their trip. We look forward to booking with Captain Jody again.
