What To Expect
Fort Sumter National Monument
As we exit Shem Creek you'll see Fort Sumter, the famed site where the first shots of the Civil War were fired. This historic fortress sits proudly in the harbor, offering a glimpse into America’s past. Whether you’re a history buff or simply enjoying the ride, seeing Fort Sumter from the water is a powerful reminder of Charleston’s historical significance.
Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum
We’ll sail past the massive USS Yorktown, an aircraft carrier that played a key role in World War II. Now permanently docked at Patriots Point, this impressive ship is a sight to behold from the water. It’s an extraordinary photo opportunity, offering a sense of the immense scale and historical importance of the vessel. The Yorktown is a proud piece of American naval history, and seeing it from the deck of the Palmetto Breeze adds a unique dimension to your Charleston experience.

5.00My husband and I took the Charleston Iconic Sunset Sail Lux Catamaran Tour and had an incredible time. Our captain Justin, his first mate Bryan, and bartender Mackenzie were all so hospitable and friendly! They played great music, had reasonably priced drinks, and the weather was gorgeous. Our cruise was 2 hours long, and the views were stunning! The catamaran was big enough to allow people to walk around and take in all the views. They had 2 bathrooms on board which were under the main deck but were clean and well stocked. They even gave out blankets for when it got chilly! We really enjoyed our time and can’t wait to take the rest of our family next time!
Awesome
