I took the sunset cruise and had a great time! The guide was fun and engaging while pointing out the sights. I appreciated the bar on board and the service. I even saw a dolphin just off the boat when we were still at the dock!
A fun trip on and old’ish boat. A good narration by the captain, although some of the bar crew could be a little more accommodating - this is a service industry after all. All in all, a nice trip around the estuary. Purchasing a ticket at the boat entrance seemed a little tricky with the ticket seller had issues with the app and I-pad being used.
We enjoyed our time on board the Carolina Bell. It was the first harbor cruise for us. Two things, 1. it's not a dinner cruise but does offer adult beverages and regular drinks, popcorn, chips and pretzels. 2. Children were allowed to leave parents and move around the top deck of the boat which, for me personally, was unsettling. Some of the parents were drinking. I didn't notice anyone carding to serve adult drinks so there's that, (and then, people leaving the boat after drinking, were getting into cars to drive wherever next). I immensely enjoyed the history. Capt Tom, was very good and delivered the tour history with a quirkiness that was delightful. You need to experience this, but call ahead to book (Mr Steve will call back) and check on time that suits you. We got same day seats but that may have been grace for us, the boat was full. Arrive early and move to front of boat, if you can, for view of all the sites. Our tour was 5:30-7:00. Loading and docking, unloading takes some time too. Trip itself is about 55 min
The captain was extremely nice and so were the crew! It was a beautiful experience and we saw dolphins eve before we started. Such a pleasant little cruise that also has a little snack and drink shop you can purchase beverages and such. One of the crew carried my walker down when we disembarked. I was so appreciative. 10\10 recommend!!!
What an amazing experience! The boat was absolutely beautiful. The ride was so smooth and enjoyable. The staff was great. Captain Dan was awesome! This was really just an incredible time to relax and enjoy the bay!
