Azjeanr, October 2026
We got lucky: it was just my boyfriend and me on the tour…and the weather was great! Greg did a great job showing us around the island and I throughly enjoyed seeing dolphins feed and winding through the section of the river that could only be accessed during high tide!

Excursion with Low-country Water-sports
Laqueta_W, October 2026
What an incredible excursion with Lowcountry Watersports! Both gentlemen were outstanding and went above and beyond to make the journey unforgettable. Their educational narrations along the route were both engaging and informative, making this a truly memorable experience.I highly recommend this excursion to anyone looking for a remarkable adventure. The combination of beautiful scenery, fascinating history, and exceptional hospitality created an experience I will never forget. Low-country Water-sports, you truly have two extraordinary employees who take great pride in representing your company. Their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine passion for what they do were evident throughout the entire excursion. They are a tremendous asset to your team and played a significant role in making this experience so enjoyable and memorable.

Fun
MMine14, October 2026
Awesome premise. Love the idea of riding our own small motorboat you get to operate.. It Was a bit disappointing though. I thought we would go a long way. I don't think we went the full 25 miles. The guide was fantastic. It just lacked excitement.
