Activity Description
Experience the wonder of sailing Charleston Harbor on a classic 84 foot tall ship. As we pull away from the dock, help us hoist the sails if you wish, and then sit back and watch the wind fill them, moving the Schooner Pride through the waters and past some of the most historic sites in the country such as Ft. Sumter where the first shots of the Civil War were fired.

As we sail through waters that Blackbeard once anchored in, relax on deck and imagine a time when the harbor was filled with these majestic ships. We have no set route; we just follow the winds wherever they take us.

Experience the charm of sailing on a classic schooner and:

  • Pass Patriots Point and see the USS Yorktown, an Essex class aircraft carrier which played an important role during WWII in the Pacific,
  • See Ft. Sumter and one of the forts that fired upon it during the first battle of the Civil War, Ft. Johnson,
  • Often observe dolphins playing and racing across the bow,
  • Watch pelicans perform diving acts,
  • See the impressive Arthur Ravenel Jr. bridge, the largest suspension bridge in North America.
Soft drinks, beer, wine, and water will all be available for purchase while we explore the harbor. Although we do not serve food on board, we welcome you to bring your own snacks. You will arrive back at the dock two hours later feeling refreshed and relaxed, with a new perspective on this historic harbor.

Food and beverages are not included in the price of the sail.  However, bottled water, soft drinks, wine, and both imported and domestic beer are available for purchase.  Prices range from $1.50 to $5.00, so be sure to bring extra cash.
