I have tried other parasailing companies. I love the folks at Express watersports ... they are very professional and make the whole experience so much fun. Whenever I'm at Myrtle Beach, I will be parasailing with Express watersports. read more

Took a group of 12 to waterski. Our ranger took us out the inlet and let us ski for an hour. Everyone had a blast. Brand new skis are fast - faster than you need to go!! People behind the desk were very attentive and quick to get us thru the paperwork. They hold your car keys for you so no need to rent an additional locker. They have a private dock to store your shoes. It's the little things. read more

Boat was basic and seating was uncomfortable and awkward. Always looking behind, my neck hurt by the end. Couldn't understand what was being said over speaker as it was garbled. Very crowded waterway so no surprise that we didn't see any wildlife. No dolphins, turtles or even birds. Just expensive houses and boats. Next time, I will go back out of Isle of Palms. read more

So by reading the rules on their website it looks like I can rent a jet ski for my 16 year old to drive. Nope. Don't even try it. They don't let you drive unless you're 18. When I pointed out their rules listed online I was told my son could drive if I was his passenger. Nowhere on their site does it even hint at that. Of course they offered to "work with me". So here's what they offered: sign a damage waver, leave my driver's license, my credit card and my son's driver's license in a locked box at their counter. Translation is forget grabbing a snack or going shopping nearby while your mature responsible 16 year old son is having fun. I realize there are immature 16s who might not be able to handle the equipment. I have absolutely no issue signing a waver. I have no issue leaving a deposit. NOBODY holds my ID and credit card hostage. That is totally unreasonable. So "working with me" means making it so incredibly difficult that I walk away. I really don't have an issue with their policy. My problem is with their lack of disclosure online. Results: disappointed young man. Mad mama. read more

Went on the dolphin cruise last week. The whole experience was fun and the captain and asst was very nice and informative. We did not see anything at all no dolphins or any sea life. It would have been nice to have another trip or partial refund like other cruises do offer. I know its oceanlife and can not be guaranteed, just a little disappointing. read more

! DO NOT RECOMMEND ! Staff very rude and unprofessional. Jet ski rental ride was AWFUL. Terrible experience

My sister and I went parasailing for the first time; we loved the experience. Their whole process for transporting you to the boat was well thought-out and fun, and being in the air was incredible. Staff was fun, friendly, and clearly knowledgeable; despite being somewhat nervous beforehand, we felt very safe the entire time. Got a little seasick on the parasail boat while we waited for the other groups to fly - I would recommend buying some of the Dramamine that they sell at the front desk read more

On the sunset cruise, they took an extremely long time to pass out the food plate. We wanted to get that out of the way first so we could focus on the sunset and photos. The music was too loud. It is not a party boat. They stuffed the boat too full of people. read more

Loved it today! It was the 2 pm dolphin cruise, the crew kept things upbeat and fun despite not seeing much natural wildlife/dolphins. I love going out into the estuaries and ocean, my only regret was not having rod and reel lol! For a fun time on a nice clean boat with a safe and safe crew, it's hard to top these guys! read more

Express water sports is the best choice for any aquatic adventure you are seeking while you are in Myrtle Beach. The extra price is worth it because most all of their activities are cost guard inspected and approved. We went parasailing and my experience was very safe and enjoyable. We even saw dolphins,pelicans, & sharks on the boat ride to the parasailing point! If you're looking for a scenic ride before and after your parasailing adventure choose this as opposed to the banana boat rides that are rough. Make sure you check the weather before you head out because you don't want to go when the sea is raging or when wind gusts are above 10mph. *This places offers the LONGEST(12 min) & HIGHEST(500 ft) parasail rides* *call ahead and ask if your adventure is still scheduled because they do not call people in a timely manner* read more

The views on the sunset cruise were remarkable! Pictures came out beautiful. The boat crew was very enjoyable. They served cheese, grapes, crackers, white wine and rum punch. The rum punch tasted a lot more like juice with barely any rum. Needless to say, we still had a very enjoyable time! read more

We did the sunset cruise and it was worth every penny. Nice, clean 46 foot boat. Great captaon and crew with amazing views. Loved it! read more

Express Watersports - Boating Near Me - Murrells Inlet, South Carolina

Scheduled a dive with them as we were visiting the area. Here are the highlights; 1) Large parking area for over sized cars/trucks/motorhomes. 2) Boat is across the street from store, short walk with gear. 3) Full boat with students at various levels. Kept it organized. One stop 2 tank dive. Would have liked to have moved for second dive but location had tug boat/airplane/barge to explore. 4) I have all my gear only rented 2 tanks (air) and the tanks were pretty old...but functioned. I did call multiple times because I forgot my DIN to YOKE adapter (I run DIN for caverns) and that message got lost in the mix but the did come up with one quickly. Pretty much the only boat in Murrells Inlet, SC. I would not hesitate to dive again with this crew. read more

Great day out on the water paddle boarding. Staff was so friendly and informative once it was our first time paddle boarding. Prices are very reasonable read more

Express Watersports - Such a fun day - Boating Near Me - Murrells Inlet, South Carolina

Love this tour every year! Steve was a great guide who we've had multiple times. Amazingly we've seen dolphins each year and even a sea turtle this year. This is a must do!! read more

We took the sunset tour this past weekend, and we were beyond impressed!! The online reservation process was very simple; the staff was knowledgeable and helpful; and the drinks and snacks were perfect. The water was a little rough that day due to storms in the area, but the boat ride was very smooth. We took many amazing photos of the sunset and surrounding areas. Our kids (11 and 7) are still talking about it! This experience was one of the main highlights of our vacation, and we can't wait to do it again! Worth every penny! read more

Fun dolphin watching excursion! Experienced guides made it an enjoyable ride. We learned some local history and saw several dolphins. A storm started to brew and our trip was cut a little short, that was a bummer! $25 per person seems like a fair price for some fun time on the water. I would recommend! read more

Rented Jet Ski's here while on vacay in Myrtle Beach last week. My husband was reluctant because it was a 30 minute drive from our resort. Let say, it was well worth the drive. The staff is very friendly and professional over the phone and in person. The ski's are literally brand new and totally awesome. We did the 1hr. For $99, again well worth it. Our ranger took us approximately 15 minutes away from the inlet and gave us a huge area to have fun. Not sure if it was the time of day (11:00 on Tuesday) or if this is normal practice but we were the only people in the area except for the occasional boat that passed nearby, but still not directly in our vicinity. The only reason I am not giving this place 5 stars is for the following reasons 1-the paperwork is too extensive and should be made available on line, so that customers can fill it out on-line and sign the printed hard copy upon arrival. 2-the life vests really grossed me out. They are really dirty and smelly. I understand they are constantly wet and there's that usual smell that a life vest may have when used a lot but these were not a good look or feel. read more

Very accommodating! Had a bad experience at a previous boat place and express got us in that day within the hour they were very helpful! Highly recommend this place! read more

Awesome staff, awesome tour.They crew was very knowledgeable.Jenna taught the passengers lot about dolphins.will make a return trip here

We saw dolphins! We were so happy. Enjoyed the educational information on turtles and sharks. No social distancing on the boat or in the store. read more

Recently enjoyed a relaxing sunset cruise with these guys. The cruise is a hr long. While cruising you can enjoy unlimited wine &/or rum punch, cheese &/or fruit from platter (compliments of drunken jacks restaurant) & see some breathtaking views. The crew was very attentive in keeping the refills coming & helpful (offered to take pics of any/all passengers trying to take selfies ). Only wish they had a logo cup/glass/mug to serve drinks in & as souvenir (as previously taken sunset sails/cruises elsewhere have had) included with each ticket ($30/ea adult). All in all, it is something to check into if you enjoy a little relaxing on water in the early evening hrs & enjoy watching sunsets. read more

Great folks and an enjoyable experience. For a simple scuba trip or for certification, these folks know what they're doing. The dive sites themselves are the best SC has to offer, which isn't saying much, but they definitely make the best of it. If you're going to get a certification, ask for Reed when you call to set it up. Good guy and very knowledgeable instructor. As far as the boat and the crew- they do a very good job of getting you there and back safely. The Boat Captain is a surly blonde headed guy who sticks to details. Regardless, great trip and I hope to do it again soon. read more

We loved the cruise! It was a beautiful night to be out on the water. Looking at the houses on the shore was a treat. We enjoyed the rum punch, wine and fruit and cheese. The skipper and the were great! The only drawback is that we were the last ones to board and there weren't any spots in the back. We had to sit in a covered section, so we couldn't see very well. Part of our party went on the upper deck, but there wasn't room for all of us. read more

2:30 pm and didnt see a thing, i have been on some tours before and we always went slow and sat in area's and watched and waited. Not these guys they took the boat 100mph and felt like they were there to just do the job and not make it fun or informative. I dont recommend them! read more

Took my daughter and friend parasailing. So much fun! The staff were kind and helpful. I wish the parasail boat captain would have been more engaged with the customers but would go back again! The girls had a blast! read more

We enjoyed Express Watersports two days during our trip. Wednesday we enjoyed a leisurely float when we rented kayaks. We came back on Thursday when we rented one of their pontoon boats. They gave great on board instructions and a map with suggestions on where to beach to swim. Only thing I was disappointed in - by no fault of their own, but the ocean is only a three mile ride away from the marina and is off limits. So a half day is good no need to book a full day. read more

We love this place! We're a family of five and have used them for parasailing and a banana boat ride. It's always a good time!! The staff is friendly and prices are reasonable. I like booking online and quickly getting on the water when we arrive. Great time! And our go-to place for MB water fun! read more

My family had a blast today! Staff was very friendly and courteous even their pets who work with them!! Lol I was terrified on the banana boat! But the guide was awesome! This was definitely a time to remember! Longest time on the ocean LONGER than the other companies in the city! Very organized! Neat, clean equipment! Will recommend to any of my friends! Thank you for having us all last minute and making our visit to Myrtle beach wonderful! read more

Tandem jet ski tour for family of 4 was great. Stag was friendly, easy process, nice jet skis. Wish the area to jet ski in was more expansive or would have loved to have spent some time in the inter coastal. Would recommend. And would go back. read more

Express Watersports deserves the 5 stars. They staff were friendly and good at they're jobs. They made it a fun experience, will definitely be coming back! read more

The captain talked way too much and we didn't see any dolphins or any creatures. The only thing taken was we got to see a jellyfish that's all. Not worth the money read more

This was the best time my kids and I had in a very long time if ever. 30 min is not enough time to experience jet skiing for the first time. It was something I always wanted to do and to me here it was done right. Great job! read more

The sunset cruise was exactly what we were hoping for! The crew went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable and had what they needed. Unlimted wine, beer and rum punch! Although the top deck was small and only fit a few people, everyone on the boat was great about rotating and giving everyone a chance to sit and enjoy the view from the top. Other reviews stated that the covered portion of the boat blocked their views, but there are plenty of windows to see the beautiful sunset (and honestly it was a lot less windy so I almost preferred this). While we took our turn sitting up top we were able to talk to the captain who gave us the history of the inlet and a few stories of his past experiences. The hour flew by, but only because we were having such a great time! We would 100% do this again next time we are in town. **Plus on certain nights they have live music at the restaurants right where you get off the boat. We enjoyed dinner on the water after our cruise while the sun finished going down. The best night of our vacation for sure! read more

We took the dolphin tour,didn't see any dolphins until we were pulling back into the marina but the boat ride was great.So easy to book online,show up and go.I would do this again. read more

This was our third sunset cruise and it will be our last. I appreciate the fact that every business wants to make as much profit as possible. This cruise was so crowded you could hardly move without being bumped or knocked by someone. In the past the crew members would describe the places we passed. Too many people to even give the one crew member any time but pour drinks. Very disappointed. read more

Not impressed at all! They messed up our parasail reservation from the very beginning. Captain and first mate did not engage with participants at all! Paid for photo package for 6 but due to weather 4 did not get to participate and no refund for missed photos- very few photos of those who did participate (not even pics of all on the boat as advertised). Long, slow boat ride to ocean. Only thing they offer is group larger than 6 but other than that, no reason to come here. read more

Terrible service. They allow huge boats to drive fast by people kayaking and paddle boarding. The boat knocked me off my paddle board and my board went far away from me. I couldn't get back on and I was stuck in the middle of the marsh. Nobody would come help us and we had to get picked up by nice strangers. I would not recommend this place at all. read more

We had a great time,but have two complaints that we hope to see resolved. First this is a family fun trip and our female guide was sporting inappropriate bottoms that showed the guests more than we wanted to see, might I suggest a dress code when taking families on a dolphin trip. Second after our first event with your company we were not reminded you held our IDs and Credit card, we were 40 min away from this place and in another state from which we reside, I just want you to be mindful of these things for next time. Thank you. read more
