Q&A

Q: Is there a limit on how many people can join the dolphin cruise? I'm planning to take my family.

A: The dolphin cruise typically accommodates up to 6 people, which makes it a perfect family outing! It's nice because you get a more intimate experience and can really engage with the guide. Just check with Lighthouse Creek Charters if you have a larger group; they might be able to make special arrangements.

Q: What's the best time of year to do this dolphin cruise? Are the dolphins more active in certain months?

A: The late spring and summer months are the best for seeing dolphins! They tend to be more active during warmer weather, and you'll also get the bonus of enjoying a beautiful sunset over the water. Just keep in mind that it can get crowded during peak season, so booking ahead is a must.

Q: What should we wear for the cruise? Is it pretty casual, or do we need to dress up?

A: Definitely keep it casual! Shorts and a t-shirt are perfect. Just remember to bring a light jacket or sweater for when the sun goes down. Also, wear sunscreen, since you'll be out on the water. Flip-flops or boats shoes work great!

Just did the dolphin cruise, and wow!

I went on the Private Folly River Sunset Dolphin Cruise last weekend, and it was an absolute blast! We saw so many dolphins swimming right next to the boat. Plus, the views of Morris Island Lighthouse during sunset were breathtaking. The guide was super knowledgeable and made the experience even better. Highly recommend it as a gift for anyone who loves nature!

Thinking of gifting the dolphin cruise, but need some advice

I'm planning to gift this dolphin cruise to my parents for their anniversary. They've never been on a boat before, so I'm a bit nervous about how they'll handle it. Is it smooth sailing, or does it get rocky? Also, how do I handle the logistics for parking at Folly Beach?
