What’s a Boat Tour, Anyway?
(And What Do You Actually Do on One?)
Let’s start with what a boat tour isn’t. It’s not crammed rows of strangers following a megaphone. It’s not stiff itineraries, or being herded from Point A to Point B with no room to breathe. At least, not with us.
At Low Country Drifters, a boat tour isn’t a tour at all—it’s an experience. Call it a beach day, a backwater escape, a family adventure, or simply a well-earned break from the everyday. Our trips are built around you. Private, flexible, and guided by locals who love the water as much as they love sharing it.
So, what do you actually do on a boat tour with us?
The better question might be: what don’t you do? Here’s a taste of how your day on the water could unfold:
-
Drift into Shark Tooth Island
We’ll take you to one of the Low Country’s hidden gems where the tides reveal ancient treasures. Kids (and adults) have discovered everything from tiger shark teeth to the occasional megalodon.
-
Explore Daufuskie Island
Step back in time on an island with no bridges and barely a paved road in sight. Ride our golf carts, dive into Gullah history, sip something cold, and meet artists, locals, and maybe a friendly goat or two.
-
Watch Dolphins Play in the Wild
Dolphin sightings aren’t staged—they’re part of the magic. Our routes often cross paths with curious pods, and your captain may teach you a thing or two about dolphins while you watch them play.
-
Lounge on Remote Beaches
We’ll anchor at quiet beaches only locals tend to know—places where you can picnic, splash, and unwind without crowds or chaos.
-
Cool Off in the Water
On hot Low Country days, nothing beats slipping off the boat and into the calm, coastal shallows. Whether you’re floating in a sandbar lagoon, wading with your kids, or just taking a salty plunge to reset your senses, cooling off is part of the rhythm out here.
-
Follow the Tides, Not the Clock
One of the best parts of our tours is the freedom. Want to linger on the sandbar? Go for it. Found a perfect drift spot? Let’s stay awhile. We adapt the day as it unfolds.
Custom by Nature. Local by Heart. Unscripted.
Whether you’re a family looking for fun, a couple chasing sunsets, or a group of friends ready to ditch the itinerary, our boat tours are shaped by your pace and your curiosity. No two trips are the same—because no two guests are the same.
We’re a boutique, veteran-owned company based in Savannah, and we do things differently on purpose. Our captains are local guides, naturalists, and storytellers—not just drivers. Safety, fun, and unforgettable memories come standard.
