We had a great time! Our captain was really nice and had lots of information. He was great with communication that day with the weather
The sunset dolphin cruise was perfect. The captain was very personable, a great guide pointing out the dolphins (and there were many!), and took us to his favorite spot to watch a beautiful sunset.
Had the best time with Captain PD! Easy pick up spot, comfortable boat, beautiful views and so many dolphins! Captain was so knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing time! PD was very friendly and knowledgeable and told us a lot of interesting facts about the area. We saw tons of dolphins; he took us up near the lighthouse and even swung by one of the locations from the Outer Banks show which our teen loved :) Thank you!
Great tour! Super nice and right on time!!!! Saw bald eagle, 🦅 dolphins 🐬 and had a wonderful time!
Booked a sunset cruise. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and was cloudy. We still had the best time. Captain PD was very knowledgeable of the area and took us to all the best sightseeing spots. Even though we didn’t get to see the sunset we still had plenty of cool sights to see including the lighthouse and the dolphins. Can’t wait to book more excursions with this small business in the future. It was definitely a one of a kind adventure and money well spent
It was absolutely incredible!! Our captain, PD, was great! He saw dolphins so fast! He let us get out in the beach for a few minutes and we had a nice spot to watch the sunset! It was a great experience!
We had a great time with Captain PD. It was like being on the boat with a friend. He was fun to chat with, but also respectful of our personal conversations. He was very informative and found us lots of dolphins. He offered to take pictures for us and they turned out great! The estuary was beautiful. The ride was smooth (nobody even spilled their red wine) with the wind in our hair and the sun setting. Incredible evening and money well spent. This is a MUST do tour! Thanks PD for a memorable evening.
Such a lovely boat ride. PD was engaging but not overbearing. It was cool and peaceful. Exactly what we were looking for.
My wife and sister in law are still going on about how amazing the trip was. PD was an awesome guide and helped us find lots of sharks teeth. Highly recommend.
We booked this as a little experience to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary while in Folly. We had the best time with captain PD! It was a peaceful and gorgeous boat ride and he had lots of information about the local ecosystem and history of Morris Island. We loved taking in the scenery and enjoying the fresh air. Highly recommend!
This was an amazing experience, Captain P.D. was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the marine life. It was a very beautiful night and we saw so many dolphins !! Definitely recommend for a date night or special occasion!
We had such an amazing time with captain PD! He was very knowledgeable about the area and got us to the most beautiful landscapes and sunset imaginable! We will absolutely be using him and his boat again!
Fun excursion- beautiful scenery and we saw tons of dolphins. Caption PD was very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Highly recommend! 🐬
Very knowledgeable of the water ways. Very experienced captain that can navigate waters smoothly even with tides and winds fighting against him! Great experience
This was an incredible experience! I’m so glad we were ably to do this. I would give it 10 stars. We saw so many dolphins!!!! I’d recommend to anyone.
Captain PD was awesome!!! I loved his boat. A great trip to the Morris Light House. Dolphins were jumping around every where.
The experience was very nice, Capt. PD made us very comfortable and was very knowledgeable at the area…. saw plenty of dolphins and the sunset was beautiful.
This was a great private tour. Captain PD did a great job communicating where and when to meet and was very friendly and professional. We saw 20+ dolphins and a nice sunset even though the weather was not ideal. Enjoyable tour- highly recommend!
Great captain! Accommodating, knowledgeable and friendly! Saw dolphins too! Great ride on our first night in Charleston.
We chose this for our final night in Folly Beach & what a great choice! It was relaxing & beautiful. Our guide PD was awesome, we saw multiple dolphins & the sunset was stunning! Definitely, definitely recommend!
Captain PD was amazing. He knew exactly where the dolphins were. He gave a great tour telling us about the area and the wildlife. Best tour guide on the island!! Sunset was phenomenal. We I’ll definitely be doing that again.
Several dolphins, perfect sunset, close up view of lighthouse, and a calm, scenic boat ride with a unique view of Folly. Thank you PD
My cruise was canceled by captain due to storm. He said Viator would have to send me refund. I have not received yet
We had such a great time on our Sunset Cruise with Captain PD. We saw so many dolphins, we couldn't believe how many! We were celebrating my 65th birthday, this cruise made it so memorable, I highly recommend, we had a blast
What a fun activity with my family! So enjoyed that it was just us and not a big group. Highly recommend the sunset private cruise with Captain PD. He was on time, friendly, answered all our questions and made sure we saw lots of dolphins and the beautiful sunset. It was a perfect night and so glad we booked this excursion.
Captain P. D. was so knowledgeable about everything NATURE!!! We brought a camera and he made sure to stop for all the dolphins and birds for us! This was such a great tour and definitely the highlight of my Charleston trip 🪿
We had such a great time on this tour! We went as a group of 4 friends and it was the perfect opportunity to enjoy some time on the water and see the wildlife. P.D. was a great tour guide and was very knowledgeable about wildlife and history! We saw lots of dolphins and birds. The boat ride was very smooth. Couldn’t recommend more!
This was the absolute BEST of decisions and ways to see the low country back waters. The dolphins and wildlife did not disappoint and captain was very knowledgeable as to the habits of the dolphins. The trip was cautious and non-churning for those with boating fears. Highly recommend.
Really enjoyed the cruise with Capt P.D. Very personable and easy peasy communication. We had a blast and learned a thing or 2! Thanks for the memorable cruise! Recommend.
This boat ride is the quintessential experience of Folly Beach. The natural beauty, calm waters, expressive skies with sunset colors, nature, dolphins, birds and lighthouse. Each sight impressive. Our guide JP added to the whole trip as he expertly glided on the waters pointing out points of interest and answering questions. He provided everything we needed for a smooth trip. I highly recommend this and being a private tour made it relaxing and romantic!
The cruise was perfect ! Great weather , perfectly timed for the sunset and beautiful views. We saw lots of dolphin and some rare white pelicans . P. D. Was an excellent guide , great communication and timely .
We arrived on the wrong day-I called and the captain came in for us and he was kind, professional, and accommodating. We will definitely use him again.
Our Captain was very attentive to our group of senior ladies! The tour came with dolphins and a lighthouse and the right enough of going fast and slow.
Fun and relaxing sunset cruise with our daughters, 16, 4 and 1. Everyone had fun, we saw dolphins and enjoyed the beautiful low country.
Amazing trip! Saw a ton of dolphins that came right up to the boat, will definitely being going again when we come back.
Beautiful sunset, experienced tour guide, great music(I love Stevie Nix, heart, etc) It was so peaceful and we got to see dolphins!!!!
