Perfect for families with little explorers or grown-ups looking for a laid-back adventure, this 4-hour island escape is all about sunshine, salt air, and good vibes. Pick your destination or let us take you to some of our favorites—like Mason’s Inlet, Masonboro, Palm Tree Island, or the wild and wonderful Lea-Hutaff. If the tide’s just right, we’ll swing by Sand Dollar Island—keep your eyes peeled for the real deal! Bring a towel and your sense of adventure—this is one coastal cruise your crew won’t forget. And yes, you’ll still make it back in time for lunch… or naps. No judgment.
