Description
Welcome to Mystique, the beautiful 43ft sailing yacht operated by the longest running private charter company in Charleston's history. #1 activity on Tripadvisor since 2012, our sailing yachts are the highest quality and operated by two professional crew to give you the best experience possible.
Standard 2 hour charters are private, only you and the guests in your party will be on board. Additional hours can be added by request.
We depart from the safe Harbor City Marina downtown Charleston and sail out towards fort Sumter or the Arthur Ravenel Jr bridge, past the battery and the historic forts on the Charleston Harbor. We always point out the bottlenose dolphins that we see and try to get as close as we can for your viewing pleasure.
Great for children and adults alike, we have plenty of shade, two bathrooms and soft drinks refreshments are included.
We strive to provide the best customer service giving our guests the finest sailing experience available in Charleston.

Don’t even think about it, Do it!
An absolute 10/10. If you’re looking for something to do on the water in Charleston look no further. I booked this charter to purpose to my girlfriend with my close friends and the experience could not have been any better, from start to finish.
If I was you ask for Will Ventress and Walker Smith. These two gentleman made this day for us. Anything we needed or asked they jumped to the moon and back to make it happen. A big thanks to them for making this day as perfect as it could have been.
BOOK IT!

BOOK IT!!!
Our group had a wonderful time with our captain Dustin and first mate Gabby! Although it was our first time sailing, it won't be our last. The trip was awesome and full of conversation and laughter. We had such a relaxing time and enjoyed the gorgeous views. We're so happy we booked with Charleston Sailing Charters. Dustin was super knowledgeable and personable. Definitely booking with them in the future!

Fun experience, great crew.
Our captain, Will, was both friendly and very professional as was our First Mate, Sam.
We had a wonderfu harbor cruise and laughed with each other which made it a very happy cruise. Although some would have been disappointed with the end of the cruise with a big rain storm occuring, it made it all the more interesting to watch the front come in and the great care Will and Sam took with our safety. I t was a delightful experience and one I would highly recommend. Thank you to both Will and Sam.

Awesome Day on the Water!
Will & Sam were the best. They both made it so enjoyable, their knowledge not only of the area but of other boats in the harbor was amazing, This will be a must when we visit Charleston again!

Can't miss tour!!
We do many tours/activities when we travel. Our friends, my wife and I agree that this was the best we ever taken!! It was super relaxing and informative. The views were fantastic. Captain Scott and Sam were awesome. We'll definitely do this again when we return to Charleston.
