Drive your own Creek Cat on a guided Hilton Head sunset tour, with coastal views and chances to spot dolphins and local birds.

About this tour

Take in a Hilton Head sunset from the water on a guided Creek Cat adventure. In your own nimble, 30 HP motorized boat, follow a professional guide through the island's waterways as the evening light settles over the coast.

The 2-hour tour pairs hands-on boating with local stories about the area's history and ecosystem. Along the way, admire views of Hilton Head, Harbour Town Lighthouse, and Daufuskie Island, and keep watch for Atlantic bottlenose dolphins and birds. Each boat holds up to two people, and life jackets and bottled water are provided. Your guide leads the route and points out sights and wildlife when possible.

This Hilton Head Sunset Creek Cat Tour offers a lively way to experience the coast from a fresh perspective. Arrive 20 minutes early, then head out for an evening on the water.

How the score works and rating distribution in Hilton Head Island
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
