Leaving from Shelter Cover Harbour on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, Adventure Cruises is a great way to experience the ocean, the fresh air and the outdoor activities available here. Whether the visitor chooses a Dolphin Watch Nature Cruise or the ever-popular "Let's Go Crabbing" tour, Adventure Cruises will certainly be a highlight of the trip.
Dolphin Watch tours are taken aboard the "Holiday" while Let's Go Crabbing adventures are on the specially-outfitted crabbing boat " Crabber J II." These tours have been offered for a quarter century and experienced tour guides accompany groups daily.
What will visitors see on these tours. Here are a few examples: bottle-nosed dolphins; salt water marshlands, Spanish wells, oyster beds; yachts and homes; wading birds, shrimp boats and much, much more!!

Guests then spend a part of their day fishing for blue crabs.
