Sail Folly--catamaran sail and power boat tours — Attraction in Folly Beach

Lovely Sunset Cruise with family/older children in July. It was exceptionally easy to book online, same day, and parking was easy. Capt Johnny is not only a pleasant host, but overall, seems to be a genuinely nice guy, which is something that I greatly value! He knows the water and area well, is quick with a story and willing to answer questions, but also allows you time to chat amongst yourselves. The boat is as it appears on others' photos are accurate. Notes: Bring your playlist downloaded/curated so you can personalize the trip w/provided Bluetooth speaker. As you should expect, there's not really any shade, which was no problem for the sunset cruise, but you have got to consider that on a day cruise. Ocean breezes do help. We didn't bring/need drinks, but the YETI cooler was cold and ready to receive. This was one of the highlights of our trip. Not only picturesque, so that it will be imbedded in our memories with many fun photos taken, but because a sailboat atmosphere really facilitates joy and laughter as we talked amongst ourselves. There is something about being on a sailboat underway that makes me feel relaxed and yet adventuring at the same time.

I booked a 3-hour cruise with Sail Folly as a surprise for my bonus daughter, who was visiting from LSU for a quick weekend trip. A week before the cruise, I injured my back (classic “sleep injury” — aging is wild!), and I started to worry about how I’d manage getting on and off the boat. We were also bringing my elderly mother, so I had similar concerns for her.

I called Sail Folly and spoke with Captain Johnny, who was incredibly kind and reassuring. He walked me through the boarding process and promised calm, smooth waters — and he was right!

We ended up cruising with Captain Marc, and the entire experience was perfect from start to finish. We saw so many dolphins and stopped at a sandbar to look for shells. Captain Marc was especially sweet with my mom, chatting with her the whole time and making her feel so comfortable. On the way back, he even stopped so my husband and daughter could jump in for a swim.

It was a beautiful day full of unforgettable memories. If you’re thinking about booking with Sail Folly — do it! You won’t be...

When we booked our trip to Folly Beach, we were really interested in doing a sunset cruise, but on our first search, we found that many of the options were leaving from Charleston. We didn't want to drive, so kept searching for something leaving from Folly Beach, and that's how we found Sail Folly. What an amazing experience we had! We took the sunset cruise; there was a group of four of us, and we were the only ones on the boat. Captain Johnny was so wonderfully accommodating and informative. He told us all about the salt marshes, Folly Creek, and even told us stories about some of the abandoned boats around the area. We saw at least three pairs of dolphins! Since the boat is smallish (but comfy!), we were pretty close to the dolphins, which was an awesome experience. The captain also had a cooler on board for all of our beverages, which was very convenient. We had such a blast, and didn't break the bank. I would very highly recommend Captain Johnny...
