Explore Capers Island Heritage Preserve on a guided eco tour from Charleston. Cruise through tidal creeks, spot wildlife, and enjoy free time to explore Boneyard Beach and the island's trails.
Set off from Charleston on a memorable boat journey to Capers Island Heritage Preserve, a pristine barrier island accessible only by water. Begin your adventure by cruising through winding tidal creeks, where the salt marsh comes alive with the sights and sounds of the Lowcountry. As the sun begins to dip, your naturalist guide shares fascinating insights into the unique ecology of this protected landscape, pointing out the diverse wildlife that calls these marshes home.
Glide past waving spartina grass and oyster beds while keeping watch for bottlenose dolphins surfacing nearby. Listen for the calls of bald eagles overhead and spot herons, egrets, and other wading birds feeding along the shoreline. Throughout the journey, your guide will use nets and traps to gently reveal some of the marine life that thrives beneath the water’s surface, offering a rare chance to observe creatures like blue crabs, shrimp, and small fish up close before they are safely released.
Upon arrival at Capers Island, step ashore to explore its untouched natural wonders. Wander the striking landscape of “Boneyard Beach,” where sun-bleached tree skeletons stand as silent sentinels along the sand, shaped by years of wind and tide. Stroll interior trails and ponds, discovering hidden corners of the island and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. After time to enjoy the scenery and capture photos, return to the boat for a relaxing cruise back to Charleston, carrying with you new knowledge and lasting memories of the Lowcountry’s wild beauty.
