Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this shrimp trawling cruise?

A: There's no strict age limit for the shrimp trawling cruise! It's a family-friendly experience, so kids of all ages can join. Just keep in mind that younger ones might need a little extra supervision while on the boat. The crew is super helpful and has a lot of patience with kids.

Q: What should I wear for the shrimp trawling experience?

A: Definitely wear casual, comfortable clothes! It could get a bit wet, so maybe avoid your best sneakers. Flip-flops or water shoes are a good choice. And don’t forget sunscreen and a hat if it’s sunny – you’ll be out on the water for a while.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad? Do they cancel or reschedule?

A: Great question! If the weather doesn’t cooperate, the crew will usually reach out to reschedule your trip. They’re pretty good about keeping you updated, so make sure you provide a contact number. Safety is their top priority, so they won’t take you out if it’s too rough.

Thinking about the shrimp trawling cruise – any tips?

I'm planning to surprise my family with the Hilton Head Shrimp Trawling Cruise on the Tammy Jane! Can anyone who’s done it share some tips? What did you enjoy most? Also, should I bring snacks, or are they good with what they offer?

Had an amazing time on the shrimp trawling cruise!

Just got back from the shrimp trawling cruise on Hilton Head and wow – what an experience! The crew was super knowledgeable, and we did catch some shrimp too! They packed some for us to take home, which was such a nice touch. If you’re debating on whether to go, just do it! Perfect for families or anyone who loves the ocean.
