Luxury Yacht Charters in Charleston

Spent a Sunday afternoon sunset cruise on the Moonrise it was amazing! Captain Alex was very attentive the yacht is kept impeccably clean & beautiful. Was the best part of our trip to Charleston worth every penny highly recommend!

Captain Alex ensured our last night in Charleston was memorable and amazing! We had such a lovely time navigating around the Charleston Harbor at sunset. He was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and we enjoyed the views of fort Sumter, Sullivan's, Pitt Street Bridge, and of course the Ravenel bridge! Would love to come back and enjoy another trip with Alex.

This is a top-notch operation. By far The highest quality luxury charter boat in operation in Charleston with a real crew.

My family and I love getting out on the water with Captains Chris and Alex! my family of 5 usually pulls up to no name island by Fort Sumter after a cruise around the charleston waterways. The kids love having the flexibility to get off the boat to swim and explore. The captains are experts at pulling the boat up very close to the beach and can anchor in super shallow waters without a problem. We have also enjoyed evening adult cruises with friends on several occasions. The Ravenal bridge is particularly beautiful to see at night! Moonrise is a gorgeous boat and the service is top notch. Snacks and water are always provided, and we usually pack some of our own food and beverages too (though the captains can also arrange to have this already on board). A perfect afternoon or evening spent on the water!

Tim and his team are the best!!!

The most amazing way to see charleston. The boat is so beautiful and comfortable. We got to stop at shem creek for a cocktail. Captain chris was just the best and made our experience so memorable. If you do one thing in charleston, do this. Thank you for the best night ever!

What a fabulous evening cruise on the Moonrise with Captain Chris! We chartered the beautiful Hinkley for a 40th birthday celebration and had a very memorable harbor cruise with friends. I highly recommend Charleston Classic Yachts for your next boat outing!

Captain Chris Parker was amazing! So accommodating and had boat provisioned with great drinks. Took us to Shem’s Creek and a great lunch spot. Will do it again soon!!

This is a must do on your next trip to Charleston. My wife and I have been coming to Charleston for the last 20 + years and this is by far the best way to see Charleston…the way it was supposed to be seen…from the water. Our Captain was Capt Chris and he mad us feel very comfortable and safe and he was extremely knowledgeable of all things Charleston plus the surrounding areas like Daniel Island, Mt Pleasant, IOP, Sullivans Island and more. The time spent aboard the Hinckley Picnic boat was so relaxing. We were provided charcuterie and champagne upon arrival. We were then treated to the most beautiful sunset as it set over the Holy City. The boat was immaculate and very comfortable for us all to spread out during the cruise. There is a head (bathroom) on board so feel free to drink and eat all you want. Our party is eagerly counting down the days until we return again to Charleston we can book another cruise aboard Moonrise with Captain Chris.

Best experience! Great captain and beautiful boat. We were able to customize Tim's of departure and dropoff location. Ana inv experience.
