Charleston: Blue Crabbing Excursion with Crab Boil

Catch blue and stone crabs the traditional way with hand lines and nets. Enjoy a scenic eco-tour and a fresh crab boil on Capers Island’s beach.
Set out from Charleston for a hands-on crabbing adventure to the unspoiled Capers Island Preserve, perfect for families and explorers of all ages. Board a shaded excursion vessel equipped with a restroom and a beaching ramp, ensuring comfort throughout your journey. Cruise through scenic tidal creeks as your naturalist guide introduces you to the fascinating world of blue and stone crabs, explaining their life cycles and habitats.

Try your luck at crabbing the old-fashioned way, using hand lines and nets from the boat, while your guide pulls up crab traps to reveal the day’s catch. Along the way, keep an eye out for playful dolphins and a variety of coastal wildlife that thrive in the salt marsh ecosystem. Once ashore on Capers Island, you’ll have time to swim, explore the beach, or continue crabbing—always catch and release, so everyone can join in the fun.

The highlight of your excursion is a delicious crab boil served right on the beach. Savor freshly steamed, locally caught blue crabs with melted butter, a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning, and refreshing ice-cold watermelon. After enjoying this classic Lowcountry feast, relax on the sand or take a final stroll before reboarding the vessel for a scenic ride back to Charleston, full of new knowledge and lasting memories.
