Adventure - It was an adventure, loved getting lose an find out way back.

Great crew - Boat was on time and easy to find. Crew was great. The island was very cool just watch out for gnats

Day Trip from HH - Rent a golf cart, it’s impossible to walk the island and you will want to explore. Speak to the residents and BE KIND. They live here and know all the places to hide a body. Spend local and please stop by and visit Jessica and Summer!

Smooth sailing the way to go. - Fantastic. Nate Nate kind and fun to talk with. The ride was smooth and comfortable. Nate was controlling the music and he did a great job mixing it up and keeping it lively. Definitely recommend the service. We showed up as instructed. We left on time. Will use them every time we are here

Daufuskie Island – A Hidden Gem of History and Heart - Visiting Daufuskie Island was an incredible and eye-opening experience. I had no idea how much rich, deep history was rooted in this small, quiet island until I explored it firsthand. The stories of the Gullah people, their resilience, and their connection to the land were both humbling and inspiring. One of the most memorable parts of my visit was learning about Sarah Hudson Grant, the island’s physical, and her husband, who served as the undertaker. Their lives reflected the strength and dignity of generations who built and sustained this community long before modern development ever touched it. Equally moving was discovering that the Bible’s New Testament has been translated in both English and the Gullah language—a powerful reminder of how faith, culture, and language intertwine to preserve the identity and heritage of the Gullah people. Hearing the Scriptures spoken in Gullah brought the island’s history to life in a way that words alone can’t describe. Daufuskie is more than just a scenic escape—it’s a living museum of culture, faith, and perseverance. It’s disheartening to see how some of that history is being overshadowed by developers eager to clear trees and expand golf courses. I hope future visitors come not just to relax, but to learn, reflect, and help preserve the sacred spirit of this extraordinary place.

Modernize your old, incorrect, golf cart map of the Island with what is actually there today & what roads dead-end drivers!!! - Good directions on how to get there. We left dock at 11 am and returned from D. Island @ 5 pm. The captain needs a mic so we can hear his historic points. We did the golf cart rental as well. The map of the island they give you on the tour boat was older, has unmarked dead ends and will get you lost. It will make you late getting back to the dock when returning your golf cart. The captain said they hear that complaint all the time. Also the roads on the island are poorly marked for sites to see, any few places to eat, or correct road markers. For the hundreds that rent the golf carts creating accurate better signage on the roads for us is a simple, inexpensive fix. And get whats on the island to match a newer made map please!

Nice Day but wrong day - The carts are noisy, street signs are questionable and the map is lousy. We booked on Christmas eve so there was only ONE restaurant open. ...it was relaxing and enjoyable!!!!!

Island ferry and “ tour” - The island is interesting. The historic locations and roads ( trails) are poorly marked. Best historic spot was the lighthouse. Might not be worth the $60 each price tag or the $80 fee for golf cart.

Don’t go on Sunday or Monday - Troy was great on the boat rides to and from, giving three stars because they should inform you when you’re booking that most shops, attractions, restaurants are CLOSED on Sundays and Mondays. Place was a ghost town.

Island visit fine, boat trip terrible! - Before going there, I recommend reading Pat Conroy book "The Water is Wide", it's all about Daufuskie and as a middle school teacher there. However check the weather before boarding. On March 24 2026, there was a strong wind and a company caring for its customers safety should have cancelled the trip, not for the waves on the way but for the conditions of the dock at Daufuskie. The boat disembarked us on a floating dock far from the harbor and we had to walk on about two dozen of individual floating pieces each having their own ample movement challenging your balance. My wife fell at the start and could go on only with the help of two strong men at her side. the situation was as bad 5 hours later when we reembarked. I heard a fellow passenger lady saying "it is terrifying" before redoing the same "exercise". I asked the first people going to the bot to ask for help for my wife and they sent the captain assistant who was very kind and helpful. When I asked the captain why he did not coast closer he told me that it was too difficult to do this under this weather. I thought a captain priority was the safety of his passengers... I am thinking about posting this complain to the appropriate South Carolina government department.
