Two Day One Night Bohicket Excursion
Just outside the gates of Seabrook Island is the quiet marina where you will find many stores and restaurants including a small breakfast shop with hot coffee and homemade breakfast and the Salty Dog restaurant with classy seafood dining and live music while enjoying the sunset . We can accommodate 4 overnight guests on this trip as the captain can stay ashore for the night, this leaves you at the dock in total privacy.
The sail to Bohicket can take up to 8 hours each way so plan on a full two day adventure sailing in the open ocean on at least one leg. We usually arrive just as the sun sets and in time for dinner at one of the great restaurants.
We have two choices to get to Bohicket, we plan ahead based on prevailing winds and try and pick the offshore leg with a favorable winds (downwind sailing). Sailing downwind offshore is the most comfortable, we want you to be happy and enjoy yourself. If the winds are strong and we have to sail directly into it you would be wishing you were back on dry land. We then choose to motor the intra coastal and sail back offshore down wind.
Motoring the intra coastal is pretty amazing. You get to see what 99% of people never experience, the raw beauty of untouched lands and also the incredible homes built along the water way. The inland trip takes approximately 5 hours or so depending on currents.
The complete loop covers about 65 miles of waterway and open ocean sailing. An experience to remember and a taste of what cruising on a sailboat is all about.
With so much time on the water, you feel like you’ve traveled to a far off destination, but in reality you are just a short 30-45 minute drive from Downtown Charleston. Many guests actually plan a one way trip, debarking upon arrival or in the morning for a round of golf on one of Kiawah’s five championship golf courses (club rentals available) and stay at the Five Star Sanctuary Hotel on the beach which includes a wonderful spa to help you relax. See their golf packages for huge savings. Black Cabs are available for transportation back to Charleston.
