A Day With a Native is Hilton Head Island’s most popular and flexible boat adventure — led by true locals who grew up exploring these waters.
Every trip is customized to your group. Spend the day dolphin watching, cruising scenic Lowcountry creeks, beach combing for shells or find amazing shark teeth, visit Vanishing Island, check crab traps, learn about local wildlife, have lunch on Daufuskie Island or get after some epic fishing . We tailor the experience to your interests, the tides, and the day’s conditions, creating a relaxed and memorable adventure for all ages.
Guests regularly enjoy close-up dolphin encounters, quiet beaches rarely seen by visitors, and hands-on experiences kids and adults love. Along the way, your captain shares local history, island stories, and insights into Hilton Head’s unique coastal ecosystem — turning a boat ride into a true Lowcountry experience.
This tour is perfect for families, couples, first-time visitors, and returning guests looking to experience Hilton Head beyond the crowds. Whether you want adventure, education, or a laid-back day on the water, A Day With a Native delivers an authentic, unforgettable island experience. Please call Captain Byron **hidden content** for shark tooth trips as they need to be booked at lower tides.
