  • 5 Start Testimonial From A Happy Boat Tour Client

    We absolutely loved the family eco tour. Amazing experience seeing several dolphins, even a mama and her baby. Captain Sebra has a great personality and was an excellent tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about the area's history, surrounding wildlife and marine life. Capt. Sebra was also very interactive with our 5 yr. old granddaughter, who now says she wants to grow up to be a boat captain as well! Highly recommend!

    My family absolutely loved this tour. John was very friendly and informative about many different topics involving the natural environment and ecosystem. Of course, we were lucky enough to watch several of the local resident dolphins! My kids loved participating in this tour. I highly recommend this for families looking for a fun time!

  • Great Boat Tour Five Star Review

    Great tour! My husband and I did the family eco tour. It was very reasonably priced compared to other private tours in the surrounding area. We saw tons of dolphins, including one that swam right up to and under our boat and an adult/juvenile pair. Fascinating to learn about the local ecosystem, and Captain John was super knowledgeable about the various types of flora and fauna. 5/5 would recommend to anyone visiting the Beaufort area.

Peaceful marsh views😌 White ibises gather in a tree and for high tide to pass so they can go back to feeding. #luvbft #beaufortsc #thingstodoinbeaufortsc
A faint showing of the Northern Lights in Beaufort is pretty cool! It was very faint but a long exposure on the camera brought the colors right out.
You never know what you’ll see out here. In one of our tours yesterday Capt. John saw this deer swimming across the Beaufort River. Whitetail deer swim pretty well, and this one made it safely to shore. #swimmingdeer #Luvbft #beaufortdolphina
Did you know that blue crabs can swim? Their back pair of legs act as flippers enabling them to swim surprisingly fast. We occasionally see them swimming right under the surface of the water. #bluecrab #luvbft #beaufortsc #beaufortboattours
