Hilton Head Sunrise Dolphin Tour 90 min

Set out as dawn colors the Lowcountry sky on a Hilton Head Sunrise Dolphin Tour. In the quiet morning light, coastal waterways and marshlands offer a peaceful setting for spotting Atlantic bottlenose dolphins in their natural habitat.

Your 90-minute cruise glides through calm waters as a naturalist guide shares insights about local wildlife, the island’s ecosystem, and its history. Watch for dolphins, along with birds such as herons, egrets, and osprey, among the region’s salt marshes and live oaks draped in Spanish moss. Sunrise brings soft colors and tranquil scenery, making this an inviting way to experience Hilton Head’s coastal landscape.

The Hilton Head Sunrise Dolphin Tour includes live narration and is wheelchair accessible, with wheelchair-accessible transportation options. Find the check-in office past the Black Marlin restaurant, on the far right-hand side of the building as you walk toward the marina; look for the Lowcountry Watersports flag. Drinks and snacks are available for purchase at the office. Come aboard for a calm start to the day and a closer look at the Lowcountry’s wildlife.
