Itinerary: Leaving our dock location out of Broad Creek, we'll make our way down the Calibogue Sound enroute to the Vanishing Mile Isle, a sandbar at the mouth of the sound. We usually encounter dolphins along the way playing and hunting. We'll spend about an hour exploring the sandbar. Once we've had our fill of exploring, we'll make our way into the back creeks of the marsh with the chance of finding dolphins strand feeding, a technique where dolphins will beach themselves along the mud banks hunting. If time permits, we'll stop off at an old shell shore made of millions of oyster and clam shells before making our way back into Broad Creek and returning to our dock location.
Highlights: What makes the Vanishing Mile Isle Beachcombers Tour so special is the rare opportunity to explore a secluded, ever-changing island that few people get to experience. Unlike crowded beaches, this hidden gem offers untouched beauty, where you can walk along pristine shores, collect unique seashells, and witness the magic of a disappearing sandbar shaped by the tides.

The exclusivity of a private tour ensures a peaceful and personalized adventure, allowing you to take in the natural beauty at your own pace. Along the way, you may spot dolphins, seabirds, and other wildlife, making it an unforgettable journey into the heart of the Lowcountry’s coastal wonders. The combination of discovery, tranquility, and the fleeting nature of the island makes this a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
