Sunset Sail on the Schooner Pride

Captain Terry and the crew were excellent, the Pride was spic & span. Had a great experience. Would have liked more of a harbor tour, or at least a turn around Fort Sumter. Just doing a big circle in the harbor was kind of a snoozer.

Casual Cruise, Dolphins, Sunset, Wine! Fabulous! Thank you so much for the great experience.

It is a bit expensive to take a sail on the Schooner Pride but it was worth it. We enjoyed a two hour sail in the Charleston harbor. It was relaxing and low key and utterly fabulous.

The evening was perfect, great weather for sailing. The crew was friendly and informative. Met some nice people on board. The scenery was spectacular, got some great shots of the harbor and the sunset. We had a wonderful time and look forward to going again. Highly recommend this tour!

I did not anticipate the crowd. Although we managed the seating, I would not recommend this actitivy to senior citizens. I also was concerned with the small children and their ability to fall overboard between the lines. The captain and crew were terrific.

A really great experience! The crew was fabulous and the sailing trip on the Pride was great!!

My 5 yr. old grandson got the steer and help with the sails. It made a lasting impression! The crew was fantastic - offered assistance to anyone who needed it - very knowledgeable - very patient. The 2 hour event was perfectly timed - not too short not too long. I can't wait to bring other family members to Schooner Pride.

My family members and I strongly applaud this kind of organized activity & fantastic opportunity to get know more about Charleston, its area, marine traditions, and skills of local sailors. So, if time and weather allow... we will board that ship again.. Thank you very much! We had a lot of fun!

The header summarizes our appreciation of the trip. Suggestions: it was very hot waiting in the sun for access to the schooner (we took the sunset cruise, so got the afternoon sun). A canopy which provided shade to those waiting would be nice. Separately, though the captain was very willing to answer questions if asked (and was obviously knowledgeable), some affirmative comments pointing out sights visible from the schooner would have been a nice addition (recognizing the crew is likely dealing with both locals who know the sights and out-of-town tourists who do not). I don't mean an overall tourguide patter, just occasional identification of sights. Overall, we enjoyed the cruise and would recommend it.

We recently took our two college age daughters on a well needed family vacation to Charleston. My family and I spend most days visiting the rich historical sites including the Yorktown, Fort Sumpter, Battery Park, Market Street, Ghost tours, Magnolia Plantation and more. The sunset sailing tour on the Schooner Pride was our most relaxing and enjoyable adventure. The weather was perfect and the crew was very professional. I have some great photos of the sunset on the Charleston Bay. This was our first time on a sailboat of any kind and it has become our most memorable Charleston experience. I highly recommend the sunset tour although we were concerned about evening thunderstorms.
