About

A typical 2 hour harbor cruise will pass by Charleston landmarks such as The Battery, Waterfront Park, Historic Castle Pinckney, under the Arthur Ravanel JR Bridge, and out to Fort Sumter where the Civil War Began. You will usually see dolphins playing in the bow wake or feeding in the shallows. If you are an avid bird watcher there are many species to be seen.

Swimming and Floats

During the spring, summer and fall where the water can reach temperatures of 86 degrees, the mornings are calm and less chance of foul weather, this is the best time for swimming! We provide the amazing Sun Chill water hammocks that can hold your entire group safely, you can just lounge in the water with no exertion and without swimming.

Complimentary soda and bottled water are provided. Feel free to BYOB but we recommend catering through Caviar and Bananas, View the menu here Caviar & Bananas Maritime Menu, contact the catering dept. to set up your meal.
