We have a busy holiday week coming up at Crazy Sister Marina! Check out what featured activities we have going on this week, and come celebrate America’s 250th anniversary of our freedom this July the 4th. From dolphin cruises, and boat rentals, fireworks cruises on the night of the 4th, a full moon cruise, and family friendly fishing excursions for the whole squad, we have fun things for everyone going on this week! 

 

Limited availability this week for the Strawberry Full Moon Sunset Cruise

This Monday, June the 29th, we are going to have a Strawberry full moon! The name might fool you slightly, the moon will not appear pink, but the name “Strawberry Moon” comes from Native American Algonquin tribes, who used it to mark the ripening of wild strawberries in June, an important early-season food. The Full Moon Cruise we offer is also a mix of a Ghost Story Cruise, where you will learn about local legends and lore of the Murrells Inlet area. Sit back and relax as you take in stunning views of the estuary, the full moon, and enjoy delicious beer and wine from our onboard bar and learn about the ghostly lore of the South Carolina coast!

Boat Rentals

From pontoon rentals for a larger group to Carolina skiffs to sneak into the creeks, there’s a boat for everyone. Pontoons are perfect for sightseeing, relaxing, anchoring up at the beach to get out and swim. It’s a great comfortable option for the family! Skiffs give you the freedom to discover areas that larger boats can’t reach. Great for fishing, we can rent you gear with the rental to get out and enjoy a true Lowcountry adventure.

Our crew offers an unforgettable experience that is perfect for all groups and ages. This family-friendly cruise takes you through the inlet to the ocean on the search for local wildlife! We offer activities during the daytime, and a sunset cruise option. While cruising, our mates will teach you about the area and local marine life that call the area home. Our live onboard touch tank gives everyone a chance to get up close and personal with the possibility of local critters like crabs, starfish, jellyfish, pufferfish, sea urchins, and more! The touch tank is never the same from one cruise to the next, so you never know who you’ll get to meet! Once in the ocean, we will search for dolphins as we travel along the coast, so keep your eyes and ears open, you never know where they’ll pop up out of or what other creature you might see floating along nearby. After our time in the ocean, we’ll head back into the inlet to return to the dock, you can sit back, relax and enjoy the spectacular scenery!
