We were lucky and had a small group… the guide was very knowledgeable … funny
Great time. Lots of dolphins and baby dolphin just four days old. Found lots of shark teeth Luke was great
Thanks Ronda! It sounds like y'all had a fabulous trip. This is one of the best times of the year to be out on the creek to see our newborn dolphins - they are so darn cute! We hope to get you out on another Morris trip the next time that you are in Charleston.
Captain Luke was very knowledgable. He made the boat ride fun. He guided us to the best spots to find shark teeth.
Thanks for the excellent review Elizabeth! We are so glad that y'all had a good time on our Morris trip (and lucked out by finding some teeth)! We hope to have you out again in the future
Knowledgeable and entertaining guide, Luke took us to Morris Island at the perfect time to avoid other boats, recommended where to find the best shells, sharks teeth and pictures, and encouraged us to play music while we were on the boat to make the atmosphere extra fun. We couldn’t have had a better time!

My entire family not only found this trip enjoyable, but also educational. Our tour guide, Luke engaged all the patrons using various learning techniques to keep interest. I highly recommend this trip for all ages. Thank you for making our trip memorable! Our only regret is not experiencing the food truck food; we left that for our next visit 😊
Thank you for this amazing review Louise! Our trips are definitely good for all ages. We are so glad that y'all had a great time out on the water. We will see you next time that you are in town! (and yes! the Crosby's food truck is a MUST!) Cheers!
Captain Luke was amazing. He is very personable and knowledgeable of local marine life. I would definitely book this trip again.
Thank you for the review Dawn! We are so glad that you and your family had a great time on our Morris trip! We hope to see y'all again sometime!
Our family had a great time on this trip. We learned about the estuary, saw lots of dolphins, and found loads of cool seashells. Our 6 year old loved finding neat shells. It was a bit of a walk to get to the part with the best shells, but even our 3 year old managed it fine. Wish we'd had a little more time on the island but it was a great experience overall.
Thank you for the excellent review Alexis! We are so glad to hear that the whole family had such a great time looking for shells on Morris! We hope to see y'all again in the future!
Captain Luke was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor! We had a blast and would definitely do this again! It was everything we wanted and more. Would go back to Morris Island again for sure!
We are so glad that you had a great time out on Morris! Hopefully we can get you out there again in the future. Thanks again!
