Pirate's Island

681-4001.

located at mile marker 8.5 on highway; open every day of the year.

During the summer, the crew works 9am until 11pm.

Golf Courses and fun for the entire family.

 

Captain Kidd's Challenge

A more difficult course, Captain Kidd's Challenge (par 56) presents more hazards and requires a steady hand. This course can accommodate the physically handicapped and baby strollers due to lack of steps and barriers. But beware as you pass under the waterfall through the cave; it's a known Pirate hideout. A treasure and dungeon have been sighted there!

 

Coastal Discovery Museum

689-6767

Offers nature walks, kayaking, and bird watching tours.

 

Enjoying nature on the water.

Zodiac boats are inflatable boats with  rigid hulls.  They hold up to six people plus the captain (a few might hold more if the captain is licensed for more).  They are low in the water, so provide a good platform for observing dolphins.  Going out on a zodiac, you will also have an expert guide and will be in a small group. Zodiacs have a greater range than kayaks, so they can go farther to find dolphins.  Also, you don't have to paddle them.  Here are some places that provide eco tours on zodiacs.

 

2nd Nature Outdoor Center in Palmetto Bay Marina. 843-341-5590.

 

Commander Zodiac at the South Beach Marina in Sea Pines plantation. 843-671-3344.

If there are more than six people in your party and you want to be together, there are enviro tour boats that can hold more passengers but are still small enough to provide a close-up view.
