Captain Doug is the absolute best! He is very knowledgeable about the area. He really listened to what we were hoping to do and far exceeded our expectations! We went to bird island to do a little swimming and exploring, then out to the ocean to look for dolphins and had the most relaxing cruise through the waterway! The boat was very nice, clean and comfortable. We will be back again next year. My son declared this “The Best day ever”! Thank you Captain Doug!

We loved our day with Captain Doug. He gave us a tour of the area and then brought us to a great spot to swim. After that, we were surrounded by a group of dolphin that played in the area for at least 20 minutes. What an awesome experience. I highly recommend you book with Captain Doug

We recently moved to Myrtle beach. We wanted to take a special trip to understand how about his size would navigate on the intracoastal waterway. Doug couldn’t have been nicer and more educational on our first journey on the ICW. He showed us how to get from his area to where we have a slip in Grande Dunes. Pointing out Ricky areas, slow wake zones, etc. And then also showed us how to navigate all the way to Little River where you could park your boat and hang out. Along the way he pointed... More
