First, I went on this trip expecting to have a good time, and I had a great time. Captain John…read morecommunicated with me before the trip to make sure we knew what to expect. He offered to grab food for our dinner cruise from a chain, but due to proximity and suggestions from friends, we decided to get supper from Snooky's, and it was good. I've never sailed before and this charter was a birthday present from my husband. Captain John asked if I'd like to help on the boat, and I DID. He let me hoist the main sail, steer the ship, help dock, and put away the sails. He taught me proper sailing terminology, but I've forgotten it. Sorry Captain John! The rest of my crowd sat back, enjoying the wine, food, and sea. We shared music (What was the name of the group you played for us?), had a beautiful sunset, and a peaceful, calm evening. It was exactly the escape I needed! I stood at the bow of the ship when we got into some waves between the ocean and inland waterway. It was thrilling, like the best roller coaster ever! After my experience with Enchanted Sailing Charters, I've decided instead of traveling the world when I retire, I want to sail it. It was an awesome trip. As far as Covid goes, Captain John told me up front that he and his deck hand (Jeff, who was awesome too! Shout out to the best millionaire deck hand ever.) would be wearing masks and it would be up to our group if we wore masks or not. We chose not to. He also provided hand sanitizer. Social distancing wasn't really on option on a sailboat, but their concessions to the new protocols were very good, and their number one priority was to make us feel safe. Captain John, if you ever need a completely inexperienced, but very willing deck hand, give me a call. I'd love to sail with you. As for the charter, our group will definitely sail with Enchanted Charters and Captain John again, hopefully soon!

Unfortunately, due to whether we couldn't sail on our original date, but there was John!! He called me right away to re-schedule us and it end up being the perfect day.

It is evident that Captain loves what he does and he made it very special for us. We are truly thankful. Thank you to Shauna as well. I really hope that I remembered her name correctly. Please forgive if not. Thank you again Captain John. Such a good time!

If we ever make it back to North Myrtle beach we will definitely book with them again. They will go above and beyond to make your time memorable! Thank you for the highlight of our trip!!!

This is based on MY experience; therefore, the following is MY OWN personal thoughts and opinion:…read more I wish I had been told beforehand to READ YELP REVIEWS and BEWARE of previous experiences. In retrospect (from reading the other Yelp reviews) we came out better than a few others. If you are seeking a company that puts customer satisfaction and possibly safety first, I ADVISE YOU TO READ ALL YELP REVIEWS BEFORE booking chartered trips and familiarize yourself with all terms - this applies to any and all business you are considering. We expected some rocking in the water on the trip out; however, we never anticipated there would be what felt like real safety issues, bouncing so hard that it threw some of us off the seats and caused those standing to grab anything within reach to hang on. It slowed the boat down to four knots and caused the crew to inform us that at that speed, it would take us another two hours to reach our fishing spot and this was after already traveling for an hour. We were asked if we wanted to continue or turn around and possibly reschedule for another time. No promises were made by the crew, but the rescheduling idea was introduced by them. WE chose to turn around. Upon docking & preparing to exit the boat, we were given an envelope containing $320. We'd paid $1,960.00. After several voicemails left on the return trip in, my call was returned. After a discussion of events, a company representative talked with the crew and decided to refund an additional $580.00, bringing refund total to $900.00. He stated he had expenses - boat, fuel, crew (? - sign on boat stated crew works for tips so we gave them $200.00 for the hour - hour and half we were on the boat). We boarded the boat "assuming" businesses that provide services which are affected by weather conditions monitor all conditions and would have and use the knowledge and expertise to make a determination on whether a trip out was feasible or not, and if the safety, wellbeing of the crew and passengers and the satisfaction of customers was placed first, the engine would never be started; therefore, there would be no expenses. Again, this was/is MY/OUR assumption. After the fact, family members searched Yelp reviews and discovered it appears this was not the first and only such incident. Additional Note: We were also "gifted" two vouchers for a half day charter. Our group of 25 might have to draw straws to see who gets to add those to their portion of the refund. I'd asked for 16 so our local family could use that and the out of state family could receive the majority of their initial payment. Well, Two is better than ZERO!

I love how everything is included before booking so you don't need to worry about dragging your own booze onto the boat. They take complimentary photo which is pretty nice as well so you can kick back and relax and they catch all the action. There is a ton of space and they welcome people brining their own food if they choose to do so! The tour was three hours and Pontiki brings you through the intercostal waterway and then brings you to one of the island beaches in the marina for an hour. There beach was lovely and there was a really nice sandbar further down the island that my husband and I decided to enjoy. It was about a 10 minute walk from the boat and one of the workers brought us beer all the way over there to enjoy! Great music and they were happy to take requests. Beer pong was also a ton of fun! I was talking to one of the workers and they constantly host different events throughout the week. Great for groups or even couples looking to let loose! We will definitely be back!

Let me start by saying I've been on the Hurricane Fleet at least 7-8 times over the past two years…read more We always take friends and family when they come to town because, even though dolphin sightings are never guaranteed, the ride itself has usually been worth the $31. That being said, I hesitate to post this because I truly do love supporting local businesses. But with tourist season starting, I think it's important to share an honest experience. The first few times we went out with this company, it was amazing. We followed the shrimp boats and not only saw tons of dolphins, but also got a close-up look at the shrimp boats pulling in shrimp and other sea creatures. They would even bring a few things onboard for the kids (and adults) to see before tossing them back. It made the experience feel really unique and memorable. However, ever since the shrimp boat has been out of commission (probably the last year and a half), we honestly haven't seen dolphins the last 3-4 trips. I completely understand there are never guarantees with wildlife, but it has been a little disappointing. It's still a nice boat ride for the cost -- I would just suggest not getting your kids too excited about dolphins and making sure they understand sightings are never guaranteed. Yesterday, we went on the sunset cruise, and unfortunately it was one of the worst experiences we've had. I understand the policy is that the cruise runs rain or shine, but the ocean conditions were rough enough that I truly don't think they should have taken people out. There were young children onboard, people getting sick, and several passengers who were visibly scared as we went through large swells offshore. As someone who has been on this boat many times, even I was uncomfortable. If it had been my first trip, I honestly would have been terrified. Considering the boat had already gone out multiple times earlier that day, I feel like they should have recognized the conditions were not ideal -- especially knowing there was little chance of seeing dolphins in waters that rough. I just think better judgment should have been used. If you're visiting for a family vacation, I would strongly recommend checking ocean conditions beforehand, because I'm not sure cancellations are considered unless absolutely necessary.

I don't know how large the waves were but I can tell you at one point I called my husband who was back home because I was terrified for my life. On board there was a young family with a baby, a young mom was puking overboard. Another lady on oxygen. The captain never should have let us go out to sea. or they should have at least given people a heads up about the waves. we didn't know how bad it would be, but I'm sure he knew it wouldn't be a comfortable ride considering they charter every few hours and since they told us "we keep in touch with local fisherman".Do better!!!
