Sunset Sail on the Schooner Pride

This was me and my boyfriends weekend away for our 6 months together. It was his first time to Charleston. Charleston is my favorite place to visit, so I wanted to show him such a beautiful city. I had never been on the Schooner Pride, so thought it would be something that we could enjoy together. We took the sunset sail which was absolutely gorgeous. The guys on the boat were helpful and friendly. The next time we visit Charleston, we will definitely be taking another trip on the Schooner Pride. Thanks!!!!

This was the perfect end to a fantastic day. My partner is going to school to become underwater archeologist and this was her first time sailing. I'm a photographer, and so appreciated the fantastic shots I got. We both had the best time! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a lovely evening together. The sunset with Charleston's 'skyline' is just stunning. Plus, there is just something very calming about the creak of the sails against the mast. This isn't a guided tour of the harbor, it's just sitting on the ship and floating along with the wind. I'm certainly going to book a trip again!

I took my wife and two elementary school children on the sunset cruise. We all had a great time. The crew was knowledgeable and engaging. Do be advised that this is not a narrative crusie. Although the crew was happy to answer questions about what you were seeing from the sailboat, they did not provide a narrative as we went along. It really didn't matter as the views spoke for themselves.

The team was very polite and friendly.

This was a great trip. There were more people than I expected, but it wasn't too upsetting. The trip wasn't narrarated; instead you just got to sail around and enjoy the view, which was really nice because we had already taken narrarated tours. We got to see dolphins and the captain was nice enough to let us sit and watch for a while! The crew was very knowledgeable and friendly and answered any questions we came up with. It would have been nice to get closer to Fort Sumnter and the Charleston shoreline, and to have the boat less crowded, but all in all, it was very relaxing and a great way to spend two hours of our last evening in Charleston! I would definitely recommend this to someone else, and I am eager to try their day sails!

If it was a calmer, nicer day, the trip would have been great. The crew and captain treated all very well, and were very attentive. I would definitely take this boat ride again!

Great experience for our first time to Charleston. Not something you'd do every weekend but definately worth doing once. The crew was very friendly and attentive. Had a great time.

Our brief excursion on the Schooner Pride was the highlight of our weekend with friends in Charleston, SC. First, our sunset sail had perfect conditions for us to experience the thrill of sailing ... clear moderate weather with blustery winds. Needless to say, we moved through the water at a brisk, smooth pace. The views/perspectives from our in-harbor vantage point were awesome and certainly different than being land-locked. We saw great views of the homes along the battery, historic forts, the USS Yorktown, and sailing under the bridge. Best of all were the sunset views we saw from the schooner. The captain and crew were experienced, professional, and engaging with each passenger. We knew this was not a narrated historic tour; however, the crew were more than happy to answer any questions we had between their busy work of hoisting sails and changing direction. We would definitely take the opportunity to sail the Schooner Pride again. Our only regret, was that the two hours flew by before we were ready to stop sailing.

My 21 year old son, his fiance and I spent a wonderful 2 hours on board this beautiful ship, the Schooner Pride. My son helped raise two of the sails and I'm sure he will remember that for years to come! It was a chilly evening in mid March but plenty of warm, fuzzy blankets were provided. My only complaint was that there were only cold drinks. Hot coffee or chocolate would have been great! We stayed inside the harbor so don't expect to go out into the Atlantic. The crew were informative, helpful and eager. We saw dolphins out in the harbor in addition to the expected landmarks. To sail under canvas with no mechanical power is a once in a lifetime experience for most of us and we reveled in the entire experience. The price was well worth the experience and I plan to repeat the trip when I next visit Charleston. Run don't walk to the Schooner Pride.

I bought tickets to this event for a six month anniversary outting and I would definitely recommend it. The crew were very nice without being overbearing. If there was something of interest, they would point it out but this event is by far not a narrated tour. Quiet, peaceful, the views were great and you are bound to see dolphins. It is just an overall great start or end to an evening. Go sailing and then go and get dinner and drinks, or, get dinner, pack a dessert and go sailing.
