Black River Outdoors Center is a guided outdoor outfitter based on Pawleys Island, South Carolina, specializing in saltwater experiences in and around Murrells Inlet. The business offers private Charter Boat Fishing Tours, kayak fishing trips, a 4-hour Destination Salt Marsh Tour, and a 2-hour Huntington Beach State Park Naturalist’s Tour. Guests can expect fully equipped outings with all gear provided for fishing and paddling activities, and charter trips include professional fishermen who prepare fresh catches.
The Charter Boat Fishing Tours accommodate private groups and are designed for up to five guests, providing a focused angling experience targeting species such as sharks and flounder. Kayak Fishing Trips place anglers in shallow, peaceful waters away from powerboats, where guides help target redfish, flounder, and speckled trout. The 4-hour Destination Salt Marsh Tour extends paddling to the jetty and a scenic sandbar, with opportunities to observe migratory birds, sea turtles, and dolphins and to pause for a leisurely lunch. The 2-hour Huntington Beach State Park Naturalist’s Tour pairs paddlers with a park naturalist to explore the salt marsh ecosystem and spot herons, bald eagles, sea turtles, and dolphins.
Black River Outdoors Center operates from a coastal base, serving wildlife enthusiasts, anglers, and visitors seeking guided saltwater adventures in southern South Carolina. The company’s trip offerings provide clear expectations on duration, target species, and group size, helping guests choose the right experience for their interests.
