Do it! Request Adam and Laura!!!! - My friends and I were visiting Charleston for a girl’s trip and decided to charter a boat! We were on Mystique, and the boat itself was super clean. We had Adam and Laura. They were amazing and so fun! We had a mild hiccup with the catering, but Adam and Laura resolved it professionally and very quickly. I highly recommend this activity! Request Adam and Laura!! I would definitely do this again if I visit Charleston again!

A Perfect Adventure! - The sailing charter was the highlight of our visit to Charleston! My husband and I had a spectacular time! The boat was beautiful and it was clear that Dustin makes certain that the boat is in "tip top" condition .Dustin and Adam were both personable, knowledgeable, and fun! They anticipated our needs before we even asked. Adam did a great job of keeping our beverages refreshed. We enjoyed the sail so much that we requested an additional hour! Dustin recommended Caviar and Bananas to provide food and beverages for us to enjoy, and the food and drink were delicious and added to the specialness of the sail. When we return to Charleston, we will definitely do this again!

Magical Experience! - What a magical experience! We sailed on Mystique with Captain Dustin and First Mate Adam who made the trip even more fun and memorable. We are local and had family in town celebrating birthdays and I can’t think of a better way to experience Charleston. I just can’t believe we didn’t do this sooner. Highly recommend!

A great morning on the water - Captain Dustin and First Mate Adam provided a wonderful sailing experience in Charleston Harbor. The boat is impeccable and the views from the harbor are worth the trip.
