Uncharted Waters is a charter operator based in Little River, South Carolina, offering private fishing charters and dolphin and island tours along the Southern Atlantic coast.
Trips operate aboard named vessels including “Chasin' Tales” and the double-deck catamaran “Chain' Tales.” Offerings span nearshore private fishing charters 3–5 miles off the coast, extended Private Bluewater Fishing excursions 55–65 miles offshore, and structured two-hour dolphin and island cruises.
Private Bluewater Fishing trips target species such as king mackerel, mahi mahi, various tunas, white marlin, and sailfish, while Private Fishing Charter options focus on trolling for Spanish mackerel and bonito with the possibility of shark encounters. Dolphin and island cruises feature wildlife viewing in Little River marshes and visits to barrier islands.
The Chain' Tales catamaran provides double-deck viewing, onboard snacks and drinks, safety gear, and spacious restrooms for guest comfort during the two-hour North Myrtle Beach dolphin tour, which highlights wild bottlenose dolphins and leatherback sea turtles as it travels the Intracoastal Waterway.
All descriptions reflect the trips, species targets, vessel names, and amenities listed in public offerings. Uncharted Waters emphasizes private charter formats, a range of fishing distances, and wildlife-focused two-hour tours so guests can choose experiences that match offshore ambitions or family-friendly sightseeing.
