Mount Pleasant
Cruise Shem Creek's working shrimp docks
Just minutes from the Charleston peninsula, Shem Creek is lined with working shrimp boats and waterfront restaurants, and it holds some of the best light on the water at sunset. High Tide runs private charters straight into the creek.
Working waterfront
See the shrimp fleet up close
Idle past the working shrimp boats that supply Charleston's restaurants, then head back out to open water for the rest of the trip. A short, scenic add on to any charter.
- 10 minutes from the Charleston peninsula
- Working shrimp fleet and waterfront restaurants
- Pairs well with a sunset cruise
Golden hour
The creek at sunset is a different view of Charleston
Low country marsh, docked shrimp boats and the restaurant lights coming on, all seen from the water instead of a table.
- Calm, sheltered water
- Great for photos
- Combine with a full harbor tour
