Itinerary

  1. 1
    Charleston

    My harbor cruise will start from the Harborage at Ashley Marina D-29. From my slip we will safely navigate out and under the James Island connector Bridge. We will cruise by water down the Ashley river passing by the City Mega dock where the largest and most spectacular vessels are docked! We will then pass by our local coast guard station and the White Point Battery, a very popular tourist destination. For our next leg, we travel out the South Channel towards Fort Sumter and old fort Johnson. Depending on Sea state and passengers desires, we will power out to the end of the Jetties. The Jetties are large rock out cropping that protects the harbor for shipping traffic. We will return back through the North channel passing by Shem creek and Castle Pickney. From Charleston Harbor, we will turn up the Wando river and pass under the tallest bridge on the East coast, the Ravel bridge. We concluded trip passing by water front park and the Harbor pilots office. We return back at slip.

One of our favorite things from Vacation!

My husband and I went on a 3 hour tour of the Charleston Harbor and surrounding sites. Captain Gene welcomed us aboard his Grady White. There was ample shade and sun to accommodate either preference and the boat was extremely comfortable. On our ride out of the harbor we even saw dolphins! We took a nice ride out past Fort Sumter and Folly Beach. We had great views of the Revel Bridge, Rainbow Row / the Battery and the beautiful town of Charleston. Captain Gene shared lot of fun facts about the history of these sites - this trip is well worth the cost!! One tip, this site is a bit quirky and only allows you to select 1 adult/purchase - you need to purchase all tickets individually for your party. The tour however, is a private tour with just your group.

Charleston in a Day

Gene was very knowledgeable and gave us the best tour experience we’ve ever had! The ride was tailored to our preference and was worth more than we paid. He gave us lots of history about the landmarks and great recommendations for food which we took full advantage of! We would take this tour again! I’ve already recommended it to others. Thanks Gene!

Great!!!!

Excellent trip! Great captain. Very personable. I highly recommend. Saw a shark jump all the way out of the water and do a spin. Wish I could have caught it on video or at least a photo
