Great water day! - Shout out to Lowcountry water sports! did the mini dolphin 2-hour tour for our daughters 13th birthday, had our own little boat for our family of 4, and tour guides (Pete and Thomas) took their time and didn’t rush. They even handed each person water before the tour to take with us since it was hot. Heard a lot of history about the island. Will book with them in future anytime we do a water adventure. You won’t go wrong with them.

A great tour! - Fun tour with a very knowledgeable guide. He knew all about the area and gave us great ideas for other places to visit. On this tour we saw dolphins and pelicans and enjoyed a stop at a sandbar to relax, see Starfish, and plovers. We recommend this tour if you are in Hilton Head.

Choppy seas made for a rough ride - The staff was very kind and helpful but our boat broke down fairly shortly after we started. One of the staff traded with us and stayed behind. The water on the way out to the island was extremely choppy resulting in a very bumpy ride. It was so bad we had to slow down and we were still getting beaten by the waves. The tour guide offered twice to take us on a different tour but the majority of the group wanted to continue even after being told that the island would be almost gone by the time we got there. We did get a little time on the island but it was already disappearing with the incoming tide. The ride back was much smoother and much more enjoyable. If the trip out would have been better it would have bern more enjoyable and we would have made it to the island on time. The company obviously cannot control the ocean but just a heads up. If it’s windy and choppy you’re in for a rough ride.
