Make a day of it.
The boat and the captain for half a day or the whole day. Where to is up to you.
Half day
The morning or the afternoon, with time to do more than one thing. Sunrise coffee on the sound. A sandbar at low tide. A beach drop and a cruise on the way back. A birthday or anniversary lunch on the water. A picnic at a spot only locals know. A quiet morning of birding in the marsh.
Full day
From the first departure to the last light, and far enough to reach the places a short trip cannot.
A day on Daufuskie
A throwback to a time before modernity: dirt roads, golf carts, live oaks, and a long lunch on an island you can only reach by water. We run up the waterway and tie up on the island, and the day is yours: a golf cart under the live oaks, the beach, the old church and one-room schoolhouse, and the ride home along the marsh.
Hilton Head Harbor Day
We run north along the coast and into Calibogue Sound, tie up at Harbour Town, and the day is yours: lunch on the water, the red-and-white lighthouse, the shops and the marina. Kids can ship out on a pirate cruise from the same docks while the grown-ups linger over dessert. Then the ride home along the barrier islands.
How it works
Book a half day or a full day and tell us what you have in mind, or leave the plan to the captain. He will call before the date to work out the day with you.
Shorter trips
The Moon River Cruise
Cruise through the wispy, verdant marsh, past Civil War relics, to the namesake of the song Savannah’s Johnny Mercer made famous. Dolphins, bald eagles, osprey and pelicans keep you company.
Sunset Cruise
Golden light on the marsh, the day’s last dolphins, and the sun going down over the sound. Bring the cocktails.
Island Beach Day
A private beach on Wassaw or Ossabaw, shells and sea turtle tracks and not another soul. We drop you off and come back when you say.
