Myrtle Beach Dolphin Cruises
Join the Sea Thunder speedboat for an electrifying dolphin cruise along Myrtle Beach’s scenic coast. Get up close with playful dolphins and enjoy stunning ocean views in this fast-paced water adventure.
Myrtle Beach Dolphin Cruises operates out of Little River, South Carolina, offering high-energy speedboat dolphin tours aboard two vessels: the Sea Screamer and the Sea Thunder. The company provides narrated excursions that travel the scenic Intracoastal Waterway and continue into the Atlantic Ocean, combining coastal sightseeing with opportunities to spot dolphins and other marine life.
Trips are designed as fast-paced experiences that emphasize both excitement and comfortable viewing. The Sea Screamer experience highlights a speedboat format while noting the comfort of a yacht-like ride; the Sea Thunder trip offers a similar blend of speed and comfort for guests seeking an energetic tour. Both itineraries focus on dolphin watching, coastal scenery, and an engaging on-board narration that points out local landmarks and wildlife.
Myrtle Beach Dolphin Cruises markets its tours to guests looking for an active, outdoor way to see South Carolina’s coastline from the water. The business’s Little River departure point provides direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and quick passages into the Atlantic Ocean, maximizing time in dolphin-prone waters. Information about each trip’s route, duration, and boarding location is provided at booking. Myrtle Beach Dolphin Cruises emphasizes clear trip descriptions and an on-water experience centered on dolphin viewing and coastal exploration.
