Exceeded all expectations! The captain, Justin, did an excellent narration about the nearby islands, landmarks, dolphins, and other creatures. The mate, McKinnley, provided great service and went above and beyond to ensure all our needs were met. Very friendly and professional crew. The boat was spacious and allowed guests to see dolphins from all sides. Snack bar and drinks are available for purchase. You also get a photo taken before the trip that you can buy printed (we did!). We would recommend this to anyone, suitable for all ages.

What a beautiful sail aboard the Stars and Stripes! We had absolutely perfect weather with the right amount of breeze and perfect clouds to give us a gorgeous sail and sunset. What was in control of the crew was also very nice. The ship itself is a beautiful sailing vessel. You sit on cushions directly on the deck and as the ship keels you are either on the high upside or low side, so have to adjust a little to ensure comfort. Just something to get used to as you go. Anyone who wanted had the opportunity to pilot the boat. The crew were very friendly and helpful, offering beverages and information along the way. Definitely a unique experience and highly recommend for anyone who would like a little adventure and a beautiful experience while they’re in Hilton head.

Wonderful cruise! The captain and crew were knowledgeable and friendly. We were able to see a large pod of dolphins w/a baby. The sunset was beautiful and we had an excellent view. It's worth every penny and was the highlight of our trip!

We had a great experience sailing on Stars & Stripes. The beautiful weather and a pretty sunset didn’t hurt. Capt. Pete, Ian, & Ben were a great crew. Very friendly, helpful, and informative. They clearly knew what they were up to, and allowing me to man the helm for a bit was great fun.
