We had a wonderful morning sailing experience. Will and Sam were fantastic as the captain and crew of the Mystique - they made us feel welcome and comfortable, were so knowledgeable about the history of Charleston, made sure we saw several dolphins, and were just fun to visit with in general. They also went above and beyond, helping us get my son’s sweatshirt back that he left on the boat. We would highly recommend this experience for any group/age. It was a perfect morning!

Had an amazing time sailing with Rob and Mattie! It was exactly what we hoped for….a beautiful peaceful morning with wonderful brunch by Caviar & Bananas (highly recommend!!). Rob and Mattie took great care of us and made it a very special part of our time in Charleston! If you’re considering booking…do it! You won’t be disappointed!!

Capt Rob and Maddie were just awesome! The wife and I decided it would be great just take a morning sail around the harbor. Rob and Maddie were the best. It was our first time sailing and they really showed us what sailing was like. We had a great wind that morning and they took full advantage and gave us an amazing experience. Can’t say enough nice things about them. Look forward to our next trip to Charleston and will definitely be sailing with Mystique again!

Captain Scott Depung and 1st Hand Monique took the time to share their passion about sailing and the local area. We learned alot and enjoyed our morning, private sailing excursion. I highly recommend it.

Great crew! Scott and Maddie were a delight . They really took great care of us and knew exactly when to be around and when to give space. The boat was immaculate! The view at sunset…incredible! And we saw dolphins!!!!

Exactly what we wanted, great crew, knowledgeable and fun to be around! We enjoyed relaxing on a private cruise and will be back with the kids!

What a magical experience! We sailed on Mystique with Captain Dustin and First Mate Adam who made the trip even more fun and memorable. We are local and had family in town celebrating birthdays and I can’t think of a better way to experience Charleston. I just can’t believe we didn’t do this sooner. Highly recommend!

Captain Dustin and Captain Adam were amazing! It was so relaxing and they know so much about sailing. We are just beginning our sailing adventures and we’re certified. We really enjoyed our afternoon with them.

A highlight of our trip to Charleston was riding with the crew on this magnificent boat. Spotless boat, with beautiful sails and ropes, tables to hang out outside and inside, great sound system and an amazing experience. It was a little too easy in fact to book and go on this tour - but amazing nonetheless!
Claudia_M, Sep 2023
The quality of the vessel, it was impeccable, and the attention of Captain Dustin and mate Adam made our trip outstanding. This is a must have experience in Charleston!

I have chartered other sailboats in Charleston but this was the very best. The boat was gorgeous and immaculate. The captain, Dustin, and the mate, Adam, were very nice. They are experts on the area's history and nature. We got a great mini education. Our group of 5 ranged in age from 30 to 75. Every person said they would this trip higher than a 5 if they could. Book this one!
