Our most popular excursion, the Dolphin Nature Cruise is a great way to see our local waterways and creatures such as Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin, birdlife, and more. This dolphin eco tour is led by an educated interpretive naturalist and US Coast Guard licensed captain, you will have the most comfortable view of the lowcountry wildlife and nature aboard the island's best cruising vessel, the Live Oac Odyssey. Most of our programs are Private adventures, but we do offer a few select Dolphin Tour / Nature Cruises throughout the week that you can signup for on an individual basis (shared boat). Call for availability of Shared Trips, or search our online reservation system for your preferred date and time (choose the date and click the Shared Trip button at bottom of the calendar page).

A more extended journey, this nature exploration gives us time to round the entire Pinckney Island National Wildlife Refuge. This expedition covers a lot of water, with much variety from the Hilton Head Island side (Skull Creek), to Port Royal Sound and the infamous Dolphin Head area, well-known for the abundance of its namesake, and the backcountry remoteness of the Mackay Creek side of Pinckney.

The usually calm, protected waters of Mackay Creek offer an outstanding opportunity for Water Ski, Wakeboard, and Water Toy ("tubing") fun! Why not combine both the circumnavigation with some watersports for an action packed Lowcountry adventure? Check out our other programs to determine what might be a good combination of activities for your group.

We'll journey to a deserted stretch of beach, remote sandbar or shell bank for some R & R away from the island crowds. Spend time beachcombing, learning about wildlife, or just kicking back in the sun. There's a great opportunity for dolphin watching while enjoying the trip there and back. Isn't the journey what it's all about, anyway?

Join us for a fishing experience you'll not soon forget!

We offer daily 3 Hour Private Shark Fishing Adventures aboard what we think is the most comfortable sharkin' craft in the Lowcountry. We recommend an evening excursion from 6-9 PM during prime shark catchin' hours for the most excitement. You can also add some Shark Fishing in combination with other activities on a 4 Hour program of your design.

Our Shark Fishing Charters are geared towards FUN and COMFORT. They're an ideal excursion for a family or small group looking for a fun adventure. If you're seeking more serious monster shark sport fishing, we suggest Outcast Charters for a more appropriate match. Their 26' Glacier Bay Catamaran is a great offshore monster shark chaser!

Watersports such as Waterskiing, Wakeboarding, and Watertoys ("Tubing") are a blast behind the Live Oac Odyssey.

Find out what we do on our days off! Spend 4 or more hours exploring the best of the Lowcountry with Live Oac. This custom boat-based excursion includes options for dolphin watching, fishing, watersports (ski, board, tube), and snacks (4-5 hr) or lunch (6-7 hr) for your group. We might even explore some "secret spots," sandbars, or shell banks along the way. Land-based exploration can include a walking tour of historic Bluffton, a visit to the village of Palmetto Bluff, or possibly a journey to Daufuskie Island! These trips are customized and planned to the finest detail, so please call for reservations.

Most Live Oac adventures are private, fully-customized experiences. Because different groups can have such distinct expectations, offering exclusive private trips allows us to meet and exceed your expectations without exception, and without interference from another group that might not be a good match. If you'd prefer a non-private trip, we do offer a few select Dolphin Tour / Nature Cruises throughout the week that you can signup for on an individual basis (shared boat). Call for availability of Shared Trips, or search our online reservation system for your preferred date and time (choose the date and click the Shared Trip button at bottom of the calendar page). Before doing so, please consider the added value of a private, customized trip and the ideal experience you have in mind. It is our goal to leave our clients with the feeling they've just had an amazing Lowcountry experience.
