I have been wanting to do the water taxi since my last visit to Charleston. This time I brought my dog. His bucket list. We saw dolphins too!

Quick Ride on the Water
I had a little bit of time to spare while walking around Charleston and doing some sightseeing. I decided to ride the water taxi from stop to stop just to get out on the water for a bit. It was a great thing to do in the summer heat! I enjoyed the ride!

Seeing Charleston
We took the round trip of the water taxi. I forgot the name of the driver, but he was very proud of Charleston, and the trip was a great time, for a very reasonable price.

Nice Boat Ride and Worth the Price
Review of: Charleston Water Taxi Cruise with Dolphin Sighting
The crew was super friendly and nice. We saw dolphins up close. Our kids had a really great time and the price was worth it.
