Description
This 4.5-hour Daufuskie Island trip provides a glimpse into a fascinating chapter of Lowcountry history on the undeveloped side of the island. Visit several one-of-a-kind places, including the First African Baptist Church, the Praise House, Mary Fields School (memorialized in Pat Conroy’s ‘The Water is Wide’), and the site of the Bloody Point Lighthouse. Meet local artisans and learn the rich history of the Native Americans, European settlers, the cotton trade, and the Gullah culture.
We encourage you to wear weather appropriate clothing, and bring water, snacks, and sunscreen.

Turn off HWY 278 Business into Shelter Cove Harbor, directly across from Palmetto Dunes Resort, between mile markers 8 and 9. Traveling eastbound, turn RIGHT into Shelter Cove Harbor. If traveling westbound, Shelter Cove Harbor will be on your LEFT. Once you turn off the highway take an immediate left onto Shelter Cove Lane. Signs will direct you to the Ship Store and Ela's Grille. Shelter Cove Lane goes 1 mile and ends at a parking lot. Please park in this lot. You will check in at our kiosk (outdoor desk), Located between the parking lot and the docks.
During the Summer, Shelter Cove Marina is very busy and parking fills up quickly. We strongly recommend arriving early to secure parking. If the lot near our outpost is full there is more parking near the shops to the left of the Neptune statue. Please park and walk toward the water side of the marina and follow the pathway to the left until you arrive at our desk located near the southwest corner of the marina next to the Ship's Store and Ela's Grille.
Unless otherwise noted, all programs include everything except gratuity for your guide and/or captain.
##Here is what to bring for your activity:
In the spring and summer months, wear clothing appropriate for being outdoors in the sun and warmer temperatures. In the late fall and winter, dressing in layers is always a good plan. It generally feels colder on the water so plan accordingly, as our boats are open and exposed to the elements. We often get unexpected showers, so a light rain jacket or small umbrella could be wise. Regardless of the weather or season, we strongly recommend a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen. Though we provide bottled water, bringing a light snack for each person is recommended as we do not stop for lunch. During Spring and Fall mornings and evenings, bug spray may be necessary.
#We look forward to having you join us on the water!
