    Excellent time. Learned about the history. Pretty boat ride. Fun looking for shells. Great crew!read more

    This was our second time taking Cap'n Rod's Lowcountry boat tour in Georgetown, SC, and it was just…read moreas fun as we remembered. Even though it was mostly overcast in late May, the rain missed us and the temperature was comfortable around 79F. It's such a peaceful and interesting way to spend a few hours, and we learned a lot too. Boat Ride & History: The boat ride to and from North Island takes about 45 minutes each way. The guides do a great job sharing local history in a way that's fun and easy to follow. We passed through some beautiful stretches of water, and it's a nice mix of scenery and stories. On the way back, the boat slowed down near the shoreline so we could look for wildlife like turtles, eagles, and even alligators. It's just the right balance of relaxing and educational. Beachcombing on the North Island: We had about an hour and a half to explore the island once we arrived, and we found so many beautiful shells. I even learned how to tell the difference between a conch shell and a whelk, which was fun. The island is quiet and natural, and it's a great place to wander, beachcomb, or just sit and enjoy the view. Before you get off the boat, the crew explains everything you need to know to stay safe and have a good time. Helpful Tips! - Bug spray really helped on the way back. We ran into a lot of horse flies when the boat slowed down near the south island shore, and while they didn't ruin anything, they were definitely annoying. - There was a bucket of water on board so you can rinse the sand off your feet. - You're allowed to leave your bags or shoes on the boat, which is super convenient if you don't want to carry everything onto the island. - There are snacks available for purchase, but I recommend bringing a small snack and water, especially if it's warm out. - If you're sensitive to sun or heat, an umbrella or extra layer might help while you're on the island. There's no shade since you're not allowed to walk on the dunes or into the trees. Notes for Sensory-Sensitive and Neurodivergent folks: I'm autistic, so I like to include sensory info in my reviews in case it helps others feel more prepared. Here are a few things to know: The boat is open-air and fairly comfortable, but I brought a towel to sit on. If you have trouble sitting still or get sore easily, a stadium cushion that can get wet would be a great option. It gets pretty windy during the ride. If you don't like hair blowing in your face, wear it up or under a snug hat. When the water is choppy, you might get a bit of spray, so a rain jacket or light waterproof layer can make a big difference. The noise level on the boat is moderate. There's some engine noise and wind, but nothing too overwhelming. The guides speak over PA system with a microphone so it was easy to hear & understand them. If you get overwhelmed by lots of noise at the same time, earplugs like Loops are perfect! You can still hear what's going on, but the noise is reduced. Those horse flies on the way back were no joke. If you're bug-sensitive, bring spray and maybe wear light fabric over your arms or legs just in case. Downtown Georgetown: After the tour, we wandered around historic downtown Georgetown. There are plenty of cute local shops and great dining options. It's a charming town and felt good to support local businesses after such a fun and relaxing day on the water. Final Thoughts: I can't recommend this tour enough. The guides are kind, funny, and really know their stuff. Whether it's your first time or you've done it before, it's such a great way to enjoy the Lowcountry. We'll definitely be back again!

    We had Judd as our First Mate and Jesse as our Captain and they were both great. Judd had…read moreinformative narrations as we took our 3 hour plus journey along the river to North Island. We learned very interesting tidbits about Georgetown, Crabs, Shrimp, the Civil War, Yawkey family, and Baruch Family. We saw 4 bald eagles and 2 alligators plus other birds like egrets and herons. We arrived an hour after departing Georgetown at North Island where you can see an abundance of oyster shells, whelk, and other shells. There is only a 3/4 mile section of beach that you are allowed to explore. There is driftwood and lots of fallen trees. The water is very brackish and not a place you would go in for a dip (or pee) so plan accordingly. You are given a little over an hour to explore and then you head back passing the Georgetown Lighthouse. Judd had some interesting things to say here too. Then you head back going by South Island and the marshes and learn about the rice Plantations that made some people very wealthy. It's interesting to learn how they flooded and drained the fields. We also learned about the Government cut for the intracoastal waterway as we headed back into town. All in all it was a nice excursion. A tad long in the uncomfortable seats but still a fine experience. Thank you to Judd for all the history and information and for Jesse finding us wildlife along the way.

    Seats are cheap plastic lawn chairs bolted to the floor. Staff is rude. They overbook there trips…read moreand left people sitting on the coolers they have to sell drinks. There were absolutely no shells on island. Multiple boats go to this same island daily so I doubt there are ever any shells there. Would not recommend.
