Locally owned and operated, Sandlapper Water Tours offers a number of one-and-a-half hour water tours that are entertaining and educational such as the history, sunset, haunted harbor, and nature tours, all aboard a 45-foot USCG certified catamaran that holds up to 49 people. The nature and history tours include a naturalist and a historian, while romantic sunset tours reveal Charleston's beauty at day's end, and haunted harbor tours will tell of the city's colorful pirate days and legendary wandering souls. Charleston was built around water and this is a wonderful way to discover it. - Natasha Lawrence
