A private sunset cruise departing Little River that threads tidal back creeks, jetties and near‑shore wrecks and reefs—this guide explains what to expect and what to bring.
Sunset Over the Lowcountry: A Private Cruise Through Little River’s Tidal Creeks.
Your own private sunset cruise launches from Little River, South Carolina, and slips into the exquisite tidal creeks of the Lowcountry. The outing moves from sheltered back creeks out toward jetties and near‑shore wrecks and reefs, offering relaxed viewing of the coastal marsh at the hour the sky changes. Departures run aboard a 24‑foot Pathfinder powered by a 300 HP Yamaha, with onboard navigation and safety electronics to support trips both inshore and a few miles offshore.

What the day feels like
How the Cruise Feels
The pace is deliberately relaxed: you board at Little River and move into sheltered creeks, using the boat’s Power Pole and trolling motor for quiet cruising in tight waterways, then run farther offshore on power to reach wrecks, reefs or a wide open sunset point. The boat is equipped with GPS, a Garmin sonar and a VHF radio to aid navigation and safety throughout the outing.
