Top Charleston Ferry Services

Ferry pick up, both ways, was on time. Staff were professional and courteous. The trip is about 30 mins. A very relaxing ride.

The guides were wonderful. Right on the money with pick up and return trip.

Very fun ride to downtown. Great drop off and pick up locations. Nice large free parking lot on Daniel Island. Staff was great. Highly recommend.

Our ferry had to be cancelled on the way back due to bad weather, but the team handled it flawlessly.They put safety first, kept us informed, and promptly refunded our money in full. It is rare to see such honest, hassle-free customer service these days.Highly recommend booking with them-they truly care about their guests!

Beautiful ride! Easy on and off boat. Plenty of time for dinner on Daniel Island.

Great experience Capt and first mate were very accommodating. Captain was exceptionally on point handling a surprise swell - we were in great hands! First mate was a delight.

Great staff. Super nice ride. I have done the trip about 4 times and I look forward to it.

Fantastic and relaxed night cruise to downtown!!

We used the Daniel Island Ferry for the Concert Express service to Credit One Stadium and had a wonderful experience! The ferry picks you up in downtown Charleston before the show and drops you off about a 10-minute walk from the stadium, and then departs from Daniel Island 30 minutes after the show ends. The experience was convenient and easy to navigate, and we didn't have to worry about post-show traffic. Thanks to Kevin and Selena for being our friendly and helpful crew onboard. I would definitely use this service again and highly recommend it!

My husband and I arrived at the Daniel Island Ferry dock and waited for the boat to arrive. As soon as the crew (Dallas and Randi) safely tied off the boat, the passengers were all greeted by a very pleasant and professional young man who checked us in. It was a beautiful evening as we walked down the gangway and boarded. We were immediately welcomed aboard by a friendly young crew member. Among her many tasks she was also the bartender on this excursion. My husband and I got our wine and took our seats towards the front of the boat. We toasted to a beautiful night as the boat shoved off and the speakers played top 40 hits. The destination was downtown Charleston, The Cooper, the newest luxury hotel in the downtown Charleston area. When we arrived the crew reminded all return passengers of departure time and my husband and I continued on to our dinner reservation. After a wonderful night downtown the ferry back to Daniel Island was the perfect way to close out the evening. A relaxing ferry ride with good music cruising under the lit up Ravenel Bridge into a breezy clear night sky. 10 out of 10

Best way yo travel downtown! Dallas (our Captain) and Randi (our First Mate and bartender) were great, and the boat ride to and from downtown was a lot of fun.

Our family was thankful for the prompt service and personable crew. Dallas was an excellent captain and played good music.

The ferry ride from Daniel Island into Charleston is a peaceful and memorable experience. The gentle breeze, sparkling water, and exceptional crew make the journey just as enjoyable as the destination! It’s the perfect way to slow down, take in the beauty of the Lowcountry, and enjoy a little slice of calm before arriving in Charleston.

This is a popular service - book early! I appreciate Colby juggling so much during a busy time!

They were fantastic! I arrived at the wrong spot (my fault) and they sent the ferry to pick me up. They could not have been more accommodating! I am so grateful.

It was a pleasant ride with a very clean boat. The crew was very nice and offered to take group photos. The captain pointed out dolphins along the way and slowed down so people could take photos. Convenient drop off to the heart of Charleston.
