You have to take this trip! - The best part of my trip to Charleston by far! Luke was a great tour guide, very informative but kept it light hearted. He did everything he could to make sure that everyone on board got the most out of the excursion. Morris island is lovely and peaceful, great for shell collecting and views of the lighthouse. However, nothing beats being up close to the dolphins, not just once but throughout the full boat trip.

Our Afternoon with Caption Luke 😁 - Luke was very knowledgeable about the waters he was taking us through as well as the wildlife in the area. Morris Island was amazing. We found lots of sand dollars and it's was full of sea shells. We saw lots and lots of dolphins even a few new born dolphins. Luke definitely did a fantastic job. We would recommend it to anyone... Love your favorite Phish Phans. Hehe!!

Many memories made on this great experience - Awesome experience! Captain Luke was great and made it a personalized experience for the kids. He even went back to collect my hat that blew away. Exploring the island was awesome and we made many memories. We had the chance to see a slew of dolphins and Captain Luke made sure we got up close. I highly recommend this experience and we will definitely take the excursion again!
