We will anchor the Liahona out in deep water just off shore and take the 11 foot Zodiac tender onto the beach. Enjoy 2-3 hours of exploring, shelling or just relaxing on miles of beach that you often have all to yourself, except for the occasional deer or pod of dolphins that pass by.

We return home via the Coosaw river for a change of scenery, making a complete loop around Morgan Island (famous for it's many rhesus monkeys that we occasionally get to see).

The boat has a full kitchen, bathroom, freshwater outdoor shower to rinse off the sand and salt and even comfortable births below if you need to rest on the return trip. Cold bottled water is provided and available at all times.

Guests should pack their own bag lunch, snacks and any other desired beverages which we can keep cold in the boat's refrigerator or your welcome to bring your own cooler.
