Flotilla to Daufuskie Island and Private Tour 7/10 (tentative)
July 10
This event is a Flotilla trip of 3 or 4 boats to Daufuskie Island and a private tour with a guide who has lived on the Island all her life. We are planning on boating to Daufuskie Island on Wednesday, July 10th (weather permitting). We leave from Landings Harbor Marina at 9:00 am for a two-hour trip to Freedom Marina on Daufuskie Island, SC.
If you have never been to Daufuskie Island, this boat trip will take you to a place that can only be described as paradise beyond. Without a bridge to the mainland, and only a few paved roads, Daufuskie Island is steeped in a simpler time. White sand beaches, ancient oaks, Spanish moss and historical landmarks all lend a rural, “back-in-time” feel, while an eclectic arts scene keeps the spirit of the island alive and thriving. Elegant homes nestle against white sand beaches and life-long residents greet you with hospitality reserved for friends, not strangers. This fascinating combination of new and old, tradition and progress means Daufuskie is the perfect destination to step back in time, unplug from the everyday and relax for a day.
Once at Daufuskie Island, we plan on renting golf carts to explore the Island. There are plenty of Golf Carts available Cost for a four-person golf cart is $95 a day, if less than 4 hours it is $85/day. For a two-seat golf cart it is $10 less. Golf Cart rental is located near the Freedom Marina, where we will be docking. We plan on having lunch at the Marina Café. Following lunch, we will explore the many fascinating sites on the Island. Plan on this as being an all-day event.
