Itinerary

  1. Morris Island Lighthouse

    Passing by

    We will depart from the dock and enjoy a leisurely 30 minute cruise through the salt marshes of one of Charleston’s most scenic rivers. You will see a wide array of local wildlife including the Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin and numerous species of beautiful estuary birds. Upon arrival to Morris Island, an uninhabited barrier island, you will have a breathtaking view of the famous Morris Island Lighthouse. If the tide isn’t too high, you will have the opportunity to take a stroll on the beach to search for sea shells and sharks teeth, take photos, and soak up the natural beauty of this unique setting. After exploring Morris Island, we will make our way back to the dock via Lighthouse House Inlet and The Folly River.
