Climb aboard at Palmetto Bay Marina and kick off your evening Lowcountry-style. This two-hour Sunset Lowcountry Boil Cruise mixes everything Hilton Head does best—good food, good views, and that salty “I’m on vacation” feeling. As we drift through the calm waters, your crew will serve up a classic Lowcountry boil piled high with shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes —fresh and flavorful served with specialty butters and seasoning. While you feast, you’ll cruise past local wildlife, beautiful waterways, and the hidden corners of Hilton Head that look their best from the water. Then comes the main event: sunset. Watch the sky flip through golds, pinks, and fire-orange as we cruise back toward the marina. Food, views, and a true Lowcountry evening—served hot and on the water.
Out at sunset: the 5:00 PM departure is under way when the sun sets, around 6:37 PM in the coming weeks.

We had a fantastic time! Our guide and captain were both wonderful—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience so enjoyable. The food was really good, and everything came together for an overall fantastic experience. We would definitely recommend this to others!
This was a perfect way for my wife & I to spend our anniversary dinner. Great staff, delicious food that was fresh, beautiful scenery of the intercostal waters. Wyatt was a great captain. Nice stable Tritoon boat that was clean and ready. We really enjoyed that this was a small intimate experience and not a crowded boat of strangers. The highlight of the dinner was getting to experience a dolphin pod swimming along with us for around 30 minutes. If you’re looking for a relaxing, dinner date that isn’t the typical island restaurant, this is a great option. We plan to book this again next year.
Our Captain and First Mate were wonderful! Very fun, attentive to all the guests, and informative. The low country boil was Very Good and plentiful!
