With Waccamaw River Tours, you explore by boat the beautiful cypress-lined Waccamaw River and the Intracoastal Waterway. Come with us and explore the back creeks and swamps in search of birds and other wildlife that inhabit these southern waters within the untouched National Wildlife Refuge. The majesty of the moss-lined river is breathtaking and the peacefulness of this natural area is appealing to all. Large osprey nests can be seen along the river and at certain times of the year we are lucky enough to see the babies take their first flights. You may also see herons, egrets, cormorants, ducks, turtles, alligators and much more. Join us today for a Waccamaw River Tour adventure!

The captain and the host, we're very informative and playful. I wish we could have seen more animals, but wild things will do what wild things, please.
