About
Hop aboard Freedom, our 42ft catamaran sailboat, and enjoy an All-Day Adventure! Take a scenic powered trip on the Intracoastal Waterway, past the historic Little River fishing village waterfront and into the beautiful Little River Inlet. We will cruise past Dunn Sound and Waties Island heading towards Bird Island.
The Captain will anchor you behind beautiful Bird Island, where you can enjoy the afternoon and a prepared-by-you picnic lunch!
After lunch go sailing in the Atlantic Ocean to end your day in the sun!
Your 7-hour Sailing and island exploration trip includes as much or as little as you prefer, such as:
- Taking the helm and steering the boat
- Relaxing in the sun
- Assisting with the sails
- Beachcombing for shells and sharks teeth
- Watch the dolphins jump alongside the sailboat
This is a fully private cruise with just you, your group, and your Captain on the sailboat. On rare occasions, a crew member may assist on the trip, but you are free to make it as interactive as you want. Come join us aboard!
Not Included:
- Motion Sickness Remedies. While most of our guests are fine sailing on the ocean, some are concerned about potential sea sickness or queasy-ness. We have seen Dramamine, Bonine and other medications, pressure point wrist bands, patches behind the ear, and more being used. These can typically be purchased at a pharmacy store.
- Tipping your Captain and/or Crew is optional and is greatly appreciated.
Meeting Location:
Cricket Cove Marina Little River, SC
