Captain chris moylan
As a fourth-generation Charlestonian, I’ve spent my life immersed in the beauty of the Lowcountry’s waters and wild places. Boating, fishing, and exploring the backwaters have been a part of my everyday life since childhood. For the past seven years, I’ve had the privilege of sharing that lifelong passion with guests aboard our vessels during the spring and summer months.
When I’m not guiding tours, I’m still on the water—spending the off-season harvesting oysters as a commercial waterman deep in the creeks and estuaries of the Lowcountry. I’ve also had the unique opportunity to work as part of the marine crew on the popular Netflix series Outer Banks, helping bring some of Charleston’s most scenic waterways to the screen.
Whether you’re here for a peaceful sunset cruise, an up-close look at local wildlife, or a taste of Charleston’s rich maritime culture, I look forward to giving you a truly authentic experience on the water.
