Folly Beach Dolphin Viewing Boat Excursion and Estuary Tour
Description
Join us out on the water for sunrise, sunset, or somewhere in between in a search for our favorite saltwater mammal – the bottlenose dolphin! On this trip, we will cruise through the local tidal creeks behind Folly Beach to see how many of these amazing creatures we can spot. From a distance, you will get to experience the unique feeding techniques and socializing behaviors that our dolphins display out in the wild. Along the way, your experienced guide and certified captain will teach you all about our salt marsh estuary. You will also get to pass by the historic Morris Island Lighthouse during the trip, a great photo opportunity! This is the perfect trip for families, couples, and friends alike. We are a small, locally owned business who strives to make all of our guests experience unique, personable and unforgettable while visiting Charleston!

Capt. Luke was very informative all throughout the 90 minute tour. He truly cared about his job and made the trip very enjoyable for all.
Luke did a fantastic job. We so enjoyed the tour. It was very interesting and educational. We had a blast. Plenty of dolphins also.
Our captain Luke was so knowledgeable. He’s obviously worked these waters for some time. We saw at least 20 dolphins and many had names. I learned so much about the estuary life. Will do it again
So enjoyable. Nature lovers will love this. Sunset was so beautiful. So many dolphins encountered. Guide gave us so much info
The Captain provided a great experience during the dolphin tour. We learned some history, some biological information, and enjoyed a peaceful morning in the water. Saw lots of dolphins, including some small ones that were born recently. It was clear that the Captain knows the waters and the dolphins very well. Highly recommend!!
This is a great tour and you can get up close to many dolphins! We learned lots from Captain Luke, he’s super knowledgeable and great fun.
Thank you for coming out with us Catherine! We are glad that you thoroughly enjoyed seeing our resident dolphins out on the creek!
Our guide (Luke) was super knowledgeable, and the dolphins put on a show for our small group! The waters were very clam which made the ride very enjoyable.

It was an awesome experience! Captain Luke showed us so many dolphins and took us to the lighthouse. He was very knowledgeable about the area. They had child and infant life vests as well! I definitely recommend checking out this tour!!
