The best look is the one that lets you relax, celebrate, and be in the moment with your besties.
It is BYOB so your favorite snacks and drinks.
We provide the cooler, ice, bottled water, cups, wine openers, champagne bucket, etc…
The best boat snacks are grazing snacks, like charcuterie boards / chips / crackers. We’re happy to provide you with some preferred vendors that can deliver a board directly to your cruise.
We also provide towels / blankets / ponchos – to match the weather so you don’t have to worry about bringing any bulky items – less items the better!
Please have your rideshare drop you off 5 minutes before your charter start time in front of the California Dreaming sign at the picnic tables.
We clean the boat between charters, as soon as the boat is ready – a crew member will walk to the picnic tables to greet you and help you carry any of your items.

Charleston weather can change quickly, but our experienced captain watches the radar carefully. The radar is the only trusted source as it tells us in real time if the rain or storm is turning away from us, building, or breaking apart.
Above all your safety and the safety of the crew come first. Our licensed captains will make that call based on the real time radar and we will know 45 minutes prior to your cruise if it is cancelled.

Luckily, it’s a 100% private boat, and we’re not going anywhere without you!
Unfortunately, it does cut into your cruising time as we have to stay on time for the next charter.
During peak season we suggest pre-ordering your Ubers or a luxury charter bus – two of our favorite fellow women owned local businesses are:
Or if you are coming from Folly Beach: Folly Bus Lady
They both give excellent service and extend a discount to our guests!
We love that you have that many friends!

We’ve had 100’s of pregnant mamas on board, but every pregnancy and every trimester is different. We encourage you to check with your doctor first to be sure a cruise is the right fit for you based on your individual circumstances.
Our cruises take place within the harbor, which offers more protected waters than the open shore. Marine traffic is typically highest mid-day on Fridays and Saturdays, so for the calmest experience we recommend avoiding the peak time if possible.
Above all, you and your baby’s safety are the priority, we always say listen to your body and your doctor. If it’s a go – let’s party!!!
Yes! You are able to add yourself to the waitlist for any time slot. We recommend adding yourself to the waitlist and booking an available time, so you don’t miss out on the best boat day ever!
Guests with a booked cruise always receive priority on the waitlist, and if your preferred time opens up, we will reach out before making any changes.
Luckily our days are long and sun filled. All cruises offer full sun and are perfect for swimming – with the exception of our sunset cruise, which is always the last cruise of the day.
Every time has its perk, send us an email and we will be happy to help you build the perfect Charleston itinerary around your booked cruise time!
Great question! Sunset timing depends on the time of year. For example, in April sunset is around 7:30 pm, in May it’s closer to 8:00 pm, and in June as late as 8:30 pm!

Charleston’s sunsets are stunning and known for the best golden hour lighting.
There couldn’t be a better way to start the evening celebrations, followed by a dinner reservation or rooftop bites.
