Inshore trips take place in waters between Hilton Head and the mainland and NOT out in the ocean.

Inshore waters include the tidal creeks, rivers, and sounds (“bays”).

On an inshore trip, we stay well within sight of land, and motion sickness is not typically an issue. We generally do NOT recommend taking anything for motion sickness unless you’ve previously had an issue on water while next to land (which is almost no one, but there are exceptions).

Be aware that even on calm water days, we still encounter bumps in the form of boat wakes (waves that boats create). Boating is an inherently dangerous activity and not suitable for someone with medical conditions that could be negatively affected by a bumpy ride.

  1½ Hours — we also have 2 Hour & 1 Hour options

This trip is available Year Round as long as weather cooperates.

This trip is available for All Ages of participants.

Children must be accompanied by an adult.

For children 3 and under, we strongly recommend our abbreviated 1 hour eco tour, called the Out & Back™ Dolphin Tour.

In our experience, 1 hour is plenty of time to get out and see dolphin and best matches the attention span of our youngest guests. However, you know your children better than we do, so if you think they’re fine for a 90 minute or 2 hour trip, you are welcome to make that choice.
