90-Minute Private Dolphin Tour in Hilton Head Island
Overview
Guaranteed dolphins! Enjoy a PRIVATE Dolphin Watching Tour on Hilton Head! This is your private boat taking you on an exclusive tour to see dolphins in the wild! We go to places the big boats can't or won't. It'll be just your group, max 6 passengers, cruising the waters, watching dolphins eating, playing, and socializing. As a Lowcountry Master Naturalist, your Captain will provide an in-depth narration of the ecology around you detailing what makes Hilton Head so unique.
A dog friendly boat, get all the time you need watching dolphins as they spend their days cruising the waters. See Hilton Head’s storied landmark, the Harbourtown Lighthouse from the water. Cross over to the other side of the Sound and see Daufuskie Island.
You'll have a chance to see other creatures that call the Lowcountry home; mobula rays jumping, sharks and manatees making cameos, sea turtles coming up for a breath of air. Hundreds of species of birds that make their way through their migratory periods.
