Went Parasailing with 4 of my friends and had a fantastic time. Fun, friendly and very attentive to making sure we enjoyed our experience. We did the full 800 foot ride and it was well worth it. Bring your camera because your going to have some great memories to capture.

We were within 10' of a group of dolphins and had a mini marine life tour with low tide during our island visit. Mike, our tour guide was awesome as were all the... More

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the jet ski safari. Our tour guide was very personable, we saw dolphins right next to our jet skis and found lots of treasures on Capers Island. Would recommend this to everyone!!

Mike and Ryan our guides were fabulous and eased the fears of the first timers (it really is a safe and fun experience and you can ride with a friend in a 2... More

None of us had ever been on a jet ski before. We all had a blast! Was the highlight of our trip. We took the safari because... More

My new husband and I were staying on the Isle of the Palms in his family's house for our honeymoon. We wanted to not only go into the city, explore plantations, go to the beach, but also be adventurous. We decided to go on the Safari adventure that Tidalwave Watersports offers because it sounded like something we had not yet... More

My family rented a motor boat for half a day for water sports with tidalwave - we had a blast. So much so we are hoping to go again tomorrow. Highly recommend them. They got our 8 year old daughter to love kneeboarding and I slalomed for the first time in years!!

This was our second experience with Tidalwave, and they do a great job. There were ten of us, ranging in age from 14-75 years. We had a boat with tube and wake board and a jet ski, and switched out over the course of two hours. Each individual could enjoy the activity at his own "speed". Even Grandpa, at 75,... More
