We booked this boat for a bachelorette and had a fantastic time! We loved sitting at the front of the boat and hanging on the floats when we anchored. It was super convenient to have inside space, the fridges, and the bathrooms as well. Thank you Captain Mike!

Our trip on the Southern Wonder was so great! We were in Charleston for my bachelorette and all of the girls kept talking about how it was their favorite part of the trip. We loved it so much we wanted to extend our time haha. If you’re thinking about booking with them, it’s a must!! Also recommend booking the most time you can, we did not want to get off!

We had the best time on our bachelorette yacht ride with Captain Mike! He went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable, from being incredibly accommodating giving us additional hours on the boat & providing fun hats/glasses to use. He truly helped make my sister’s bachelorette celebration better than we could have asked for. Highly recommend, and we would absolutely come back again. Thank you, Captain Mike! ⛵🎉
Captain Mike provided us the best experience!! Super accommodating, knowledgeable, fun, and super responsive with any questions and requests we had leading up to the charter and during. The boat was unbelievably nice. We will definitely rebook when we are back in CHS!

This was my first time renting a private boat and Mike made the process easy!! He was quick to respond to all of my questions and everything was better than I imagined. We had an amazing time on the boat and Mike was open to changing the itinerary to fit our needs and what we wanted to do. The boat is beautiful and spacious. Thank you so much Mike!!!

You’ll get directions to the departure location when you make a booking.
Full refund up to 7 days prior.
Our cancellation policy is as flexible and friendly as we can make it. Weather cancellation: If your trip is cancelled due to weather (at the captain's discretion), we will reschedule, or refund the full amount paid. We will be in touch if there is rain in the forecast. Because the weather in Charleston changes quickly, we typically wait until the last minute to cancel for bad weather. "Southern Wonder" can handle any type of weather event due to the ease of drop down full enclosures which will keep your group dry in a moment's notice. Cancellation by the guest: If a cancellation is made within seven days of the charter date, a 50% refund will be provided. No cancellation refunds are provided within 48 hours of departure. Cancellation by the captain: If severe weather, environmental conditions, unforeseen prohibitive circumstances, or mechanical failure, the charter will be rescheduled to a mutually agreeable date prior to the trip or a full refund will be issued.
