Private Cruises in the Low Country onboard 6 People Hurricane Deck Boat
Captain Barney was so great! We had a bachelorette group of 5. He kept good communication with us about how to meet up, provided ice/coolers for us, and allowed us to hook up our own music to the bluetooth. He asked us what we wanted to see and then took us by the Arthur bridge, showed us a few historical spots with explanations, took us to a private beach and then dropped us off back at Shem Creek so we could get a drink if we wanted at one of the bars! He's very welcoming and our group loved having him as our guide.

30' Adventure Craft in Folly Beach, South Carolina
Our group of girls had a blast with Gabe! Him and his partner were very accommodating and ensured we had a great experience. We cruised to a sandbar for games, lunch, and dolphin exploration - even saw dolphins hunting for fish close to shore! 100% recommend Gabe and hope to be back in Folly soon for another trip!

Private Cruises in the Low Country onboard 6 People Hurricane Deck Boat
We had a wonderful afternoon on the water with Captain Barney! He is very knowledgeable about the area and it’s history. He provided everything we needed in the boat so we only had to bring what we wanted to eat and drink. He is an experienced and skilled captain. We highly recommend him!
