    Why 5 stars. Very simple: Sunrise, sunset! Sunrise, sunset! Sunrise, sunset! Before you break into song, take a look at the recent pictures. They paint a picture that is truly worth a 1000 or more words. There are many wonderful spots to watch the sun come up from the harbor or rest for the night, but this one is special. You will get your bare minimum set of dog walkers and runners, but otherwise, the tranquility and silence penetrates you. From this spot, you can see the Cooper River Bridge, the USS Yorktown, SC Aquarium, Port ships and of course the Charleston Harbor. Also, a beautiful tall ship that you can walk to and touch. The colors speak volumes. In the morning rich pastels and a sun that warms your soul. At night, soft oranges fill the sky and the water is calm as can be. You will lose yourself here. Whether you sit on one of the many benches or walk along the pier area checking out the private boats and seeing the sky change color, this is a true Charleston escape.

    Charleston Maritime Center is a great building and event space that is on the water and offers beautiful views of the Charleston harbor. I have been here for several different events and it works very well as a space that is wide open on the inside and a large space outside that is pleasant and offers a nice breeze from the water. I have had a really good time every time I have been here and I am happy that this space exists and look forward to coming back here for many different events in the future.

    So peaceful and relaxing just to look out on the water. I'm a fan of the area and hope to be back.

    I love this Marina! If you own a boat in Charleston and don't have your own dock, then this is your…read morespot. This is an excellent marina. The price per foot is very competitive and worth it. More convenient then a jet dock. Seabreeze is tucked away off East Bay and very convenient to get to. Parking is limited during the week, but I've never had an issue finding a spot. The marina itself is large enough to hold around 15-17 boats in the water at any given time, so keeping your boat in for a few days is not problem. Having your boat placed in the water is literally as easy as a button on an app. From there they will fill up your tank, ice you down, and even provide snacks and beverages (extra cost) if you request. The app is always working well and I've never had a problem. What separates Seabreeze from other Marinas are the PEOPLE THAT WORK THERE. Great group of guys who are genuinely very friendly and just there to make sure your happy. They are always very accommodating to all my special requests. I trust them without question with my boat and have had no issues. Will the GM is always available when I've needed him. Chandler and Hunter are awesome at making sure everything is running smooth. It's hard for me to imagine putting my boat anywhere else.

He is a wealth of local knowledge and very friendly. The marina location is great as it is in a protected area and offers ideal access to the harbor. The docks are very nice and offer extra protection to wake. This is a prime downtown location with nice amenities and a great team, highly recommend. Its a little tough getting to town from the marina, but the same is true for all downtown marinas offering annual slips and Seabreeze has more parking than others.

    I was on a trip to the area with my family and they wanted to do a dolphin watching tour. Now, I am…read moreVERY prone to seasickness so I decided to sit it out and my husband graciously agreed to stay back with me. So the family goes and they have a nice boat ride but do not report seeing many dolphins. Thems the breaks with nature, I suppose! Anyway, they get back and my husband and I decide to take a walk around the marina so our day wasn't a total bust. And my friends? We hit the dolphin JACKPOT. We managed to be there at the same time a shrimp boat returned and after they docked they began to sort their catches, throwing any unwanted fish and sea creatures back into the water. And the wildlife went CRAZY. The dolphins swam right up to the boat, just by railing we were watching from. There were dozens of them! DOZENS! The pelicans came by and I delighted watching them diving and taking fish down their mighty gullets. Seagulls dove and hovered....it was so fun. I honestly think we watched for close to an hour. It was delightful. And the best part? We didn't pay a dime for the experience and I wasn't puking over the side of a boat. Wins all around! I texted my cousin, the one who requested the boat excursion, a short clip of all the dolphins we saw and she responded with a very cross looking emoticon. Annoying my teenage cousin? The extra bonus of the whole affair. IDK how know often those boats come through and I would never want to discourage anyone from taking a tour if they wanted but if you can time it right, you'll get a pretty incredible experience just by passing through.

You might see kayakers and plenty of fisher-people out on the pier. If you're a fan of boats or birds, there are plenty to be seen. You can even watch the boats get hoisted out of the water into a bait storage. They have a scant amount of public parking so if it's a busy day you might be out of luck. I did like the view at the end of the pier and the birds certainly aren't shy.

    Dates: July 18 - 24, 2024 LOA: 48' Beam: 15' Draft: 3'4"…read more The mega dock at this marina is massive. We stayed here for a week to receive some packages and reset. We were assigned a spot on the outside of the mega dock itself. In the late afternoon through early evening the current gets pretty rough and has you bouncing around a bit, but it does settle down. We had 30 to 40ft of depth under us on the outside of the mega dock. Pump outs are done via a pump out boat. As long as someone is free they can come take care of you. The laundry facilities and showers were really nice, as were the bathrooms. This marina is under construction, expanding their available slips and putting in all new floating docks. Parking is all gated, so for Walmart deliveries and Uber you need to walk up to the bus station bench by the gas station. The staff were great! Super helpful and always answered the phone. There is a shuttle that runs every hour until close that will take you anywhere downtown, and it goes to West Marine once a day. Charleston is a wonderful city and we will definitely be returning to this marina to spend more time. It was a great experience all around.

This time of years it gets crazy but Ashley was able to help us during some mechanical delays. Hotels close by if you need time off the boat and great restaurants near with Uber.

    My folks keep their boat here and I must say, this marina which is on the newer side is getting…read morebetter and better. They've just opened a really nice clubhouse/lounge for members to cool off, have a fun little outside bar that is open on weekends (last year they used to give away beer to members on Sundays!), and have a new little pavilion type spot down on the actual docks that will have live music from time to time. The guys who work at the marina are incredibly nice and well-skilled in maneuvering boats... so have no fear owners, you likely won't find a scratch from them! Members can call and have their boat launched from I think 8am until 4pm. All boats are kept in dry docks and put in the water on request. If you get in after 4pm, you're boat will be safe and sound, and placed back in the dry dock the following morning. The marina crew washes the saltwater off each boat before returning them to their covered stalls which ensures your boat stays as well-maintained as possible. There is also a small convenient store on site that sells beer, water, and a few other beverages. Overall, a really nice spot!

The boats are loaded in a safe matter and for the most part…read morethe drivers of the boats are very safe and professional (I only say for the most part because we did witness one young driver bump fairly hard into another in the summer of 2012). They just built a brand new clubhouse which is fantastic for relaxing. Beer can be purchased on site which is great and the outside bar is a nice area to sit around, although almost never staffed. I've enjoyed my experiences at Daniel Island Marina a lot and look forward to returning again soon. PS...going away from Charleston Harbor up the creek provides great boating on choppier days.
