The pods of Tamenend's Bottlenose Dolphins were thrilling. Just cruising the estuary was fascinating. An environment like no other. Lots of bird activity. Extensive oyster beds. Paul, the boat owner and Captain, is knowledgeable and provides just the right amount of information and interaction. A great experience.

Our tour with Morris Island Charters was one of the highlights of our trip to the Lowcountry. We saw dolphins, explored the waterways, visited Morris Island, found shark teeth - it was a truly memorable experience and made so fun for my kids as it was totally adapted to them. I would recommend to anyone visiting Folly Beach or the nearby area - the booking process was so easy, PD is a fantastic captain - both knowledgable and kind, and it was a great trip.

Captain PD went above and beyond; he reached out to us to let us know about a road race which may impact our travel time and route to the landing. He also loaned me essential weather gear which I was missing on our very windy snd chilly day. We saw several dolphin and learned a bit about them.
Would recommend!

Highly recommend! We did the dolphin tour w two teen daughters and all had a great time. Saw plenty of dolphins, enjoyed boating through the windy creeks, learned a great deal about the local ecosystem, and - something that thrilled our girls - happened upon locales depicted in the tv show Outer Banks. The Captain is extremely knowledgeable, safe, and experienced.

Captain P D is an amazingly patient and knowledgeable Captain, our family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed this experience on Folly Beach

We loved seeing mother and baby dolphins arc from the water at the same time, as though they were one animal. Our Captain, PD, was skilled in finding all the dolphins that could possibly have been in the area. We also froze to death, but that is the sea's fault.
