That's no small feat with a group that spans generations! They were welcoming from the moment we stepped aboard, kept our little one engaged and safe, and made sure our older family members were comfortable the entire trip. And the dolphins -- WOW. We saw entire pods swimming right alongside us! Honestly, it felt like the dolphins knew this captain and his crew personally, the way they showed up. The Captain clearly knows these waters inside and out, and both he and his First Mate shared so much fascinating information about the dolphins and local ecosystem that we all walked away having learned something new. It was equal parts fun, informative, and magical. This is a small business that genuinely cares about giving families a memorable experience, and it shows in every detail. We can't recommend Blue Wave Adventures highly enough -- this was the highlight of our trip, and we'll absolutely be back. Book them, you won't regret it!

Nice ride out to see dolphins! Was worried they weren't gonna show then tada there they were.read more

What an incredible experience! The Waccamaw River tour was hands down one of the highlights of our…read moretrip to Myrtle Beach. From the moment we left the dock, the scenery was absolutely breathtaking--towering cypress trees draped in Spanish moss, peaceful waters, and an abundance of wildlife made it feel like stepping into another world. Our guide was outstanding: knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about the river and its ecosystem. We learned so much about the area's history, local wildlife, and unique environment while still having plenty of time to relax and take in the beauty around us. We were lucky enough to spot birds, turtles, and even an alligator! The pace of the tour was perfect--not rushed, but never boring. It was peaceful, informative, and a wonderful escape from the busy beach scene. Whether you're visiting Myrtle Beach for the first time or you've been coming for years, this tour is an absolute must-do. I can't recommend the Waccamaw River tour highly enough. If you're looking for an authentic Lowcountry experience with stunning scenery and an exceptional guide, book this tour--you won't regret it!

The marsh is characteristically majestic. The businesses aren't much. It's always nice to get a bit of that fresh sea air, but compared to, say, the similar Shem Creek boardwalk in the Charleston suburbs, this one is nothing to write home about. Parking was a tad confusing but out on the street appeared to be free. I'm sure that eating on the water is nice, but food options are better elsewhere in my experience.

The add-on options of telescope eye patch and bandana make for a truly immersive experience.

So incredibly glad we booked this for the start of our vacation as we did it the first day because it set the tone for fun and family friendly experiences 1,000% recommend. Would also book a different type of pirate Cruise; maybe for an older kid range due to the fact that we booked this for 8yr twins and a 5.5 year old but could honestly see our three boys loving to go again!

I cannot say enough awesome things about our experience on this boat…read more We were doing a large "family" vacation and there were 12 of us so we opted to rent the entire boat for a sunset cruise. Two hours for $400. You really can't beat that price since you usually pay $35-45 per person for a sunset cruise. The boat isn't very big but there is a middle BAR area where you can put ice and drinks with 8-10 "stools" surrounding it. Apparently you can "paddle" the boat yourself but our group was more interested in drinking. There is also a seating area the front of the boat where up to four people can sit. Captain John was FANTASTIC! He caught our vibe really quick and turned on some fun lights and DJ'd our party all the way from the docks, to the sound, all the way to the ocean (where we promptly turned around to come back!) We drank and danced and laughed for two whole hours. It was a slow easy ride and so much fun. There were several people in our party that had never done that before but everyone was ready to do it again. HIGHLY recommend!
