The World's Most Exciting Tour Boat
THRILLER – Charleston’s only public off-shore tour boat. THRILLER Charleston is
a 43 passenger power catamaran that takes you on an off-shore adventure as we make
our way to the Morris Island Lighthouse. Erosion has caused the Morris Island Lighthouse
to be completely surrounded by water and due to its distance from the harbor, other
public tour boats do not include it in their tour. But we do, THRILLER Charleston
is built for speed and comfort and we can get you up close to the lighthouse for
a view not seen anywhere else.
THRILLER Charleston operates from the Ripley Light Marina, just left of California
Dreaming Restaurant, in Charleston. Our ride takes you out the South Channel of
the Charleston harbor as we head for the Atlantic Ocean. Feel the adrenaline pumping
as we burst out of the jetties into the open ocean while our 1000 watt stereo system is playing some of the greatest music ever recorded. Have
fun surfing the waves with Captain Mark or Captain Mike while cruising along the
South Carolina coastline feeling the wind and sun against your face. After our up
close look at the Morris Island Lighthouse, we head back through the jetties into
the harbor and take the North Channel along the Mt. Pleasant side of the harbor.
While in the harbor, we point out all five forts that are or were in the harbor
during the Revolutionary and Civil Wars and give you some interesting facts about
each. See over 25 miles of shoreline on this 1 hour long ride. Definitely a fun way to see some
history.
Please note that if current weather conditions make the ocean too rough for us to
travel safely to the Morris Island Lighthouse, our route will change to include
a tour of the Charleston Harbor and a ride up the Cooper or Wando Rivers.
If you only do one tour in Charleston, this should be it! Combine the old with the
new on THRILLER Charleston and see Charleston in a brand new way.
Come on board!
