5.00Friendly Captain (Holly) and Crew (Jules). Good communication before and during the sail. Holly took safety seriously including watching a potential storm in the distance and adjusting course for it. Jules took care of us by serving us and checking to see if we needed anything which allowed us to sit, relax and enjoy the cruise. We enjoyed being on the water, seeing all the other ships, the smooth sailing and seeing dolphins. I would definitely recommend this as a special thing to do while in Charleston.

5.00Well priced for a private yacht cruise. We just chilled as we enjoyed the scenery and the dolphins. Captain Holly and her first mate were knowledgeable, friendly and very service oriented. I would definitely do it again.
