“"Scott and jack were wonderful! The knowledge of history and the surrounding area was truly impressive. Like Scott my husband is a nuclear submarine vet so shared so many stories. Had such a beautiful day and fun chatting I never saw below deck!! Thanks again for a wonderful time exploring Charleston’s port." ” Liz Andring 31 August,2022
“"We had another great day with Captain Dustin and Mattie on Mystique. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Charleston." ” Pete Pace 31 August,2022
“The BEST. Captain Scott and Adam were unreal. They gave us the best time on the water, giving us tips about Charleston and a little bit of a history lesson to go with it. Whenever we asked or needed something, they were right there. Not to mention these were the types of dudes you want to grab a beer with afterwards. We will definitely be back, next time with our kids. Can not say enough good things about our two hours sailing on The Fate with this ” Tom Sarnovsky 28 August,2022

As any local Charlestonian will tell you, don't let our weather forecasts fool you into missing out on a gorgeous charter or beautiful sunset! Our weather forecasts call for a 30-50% chance of rain nearly every day! If it does rain, it is usually only for a short period during a pop-up shower.

01 Will I get seasick?

Since we stay inside the harbor, protected from larger waves of the open sea, it is unlikely that you would get seasick. The water is calm and the boats are only subjected to large waves created by other boats. Concerned passengers could bring products that contain ginger, such as ginger cookers, or Ginger Ale because they have been known to help calm an upset stomach. Be sure to start taking ginger or any other sea-sickness medications the day before your charter for the best results. We recommend you stay away from the drowsy kinds. Recommendations are provided for informational purposes only. Please consult your physician with any questions regarding a medical condition.

02 Are your yachts safe?

Yes! Our yachts are clean, well-maintained, and fully insured for charter. All of our vessels meet or exceed safety requirements by the United States Coast Guard with onboard equipment that includes Type 1 Personal Flotation Devices (life jackets) for every passenger, an approved Sound Producing Device, fire extinguishers, flares, a VHF radio, & an approved throwable ring buoy. They also meet equipment, operation, and pollution prevention regulations established by the Coast Guard. Vessel Captains possess a valid license issued by the U. S. Coast Guard and undergo random drug screenings.

03 Can I bring more than 6 passengers?

Yes, on our Motor Yacht Kismet, which has been specifically designed to carry up to 23 passengers. You will find 23 to be pretty tight, we recommend keeping the maximum passenger count to under 20. 

The sailing yachts both are limited to 6 passengers, however, you can rent boat sailboats and take 12, having 6 on each boat.

04 Do children or infants count as a passenger?

Yes, they do. The United States Coast Guard considers every person, except for the Captain and crew as a passenger. Children require supervision by parents or guardians at all times and must be capable of remaining calmly seated for several hours. If you are bringing younger children, we recommend a charter length of no longer than 2 hours.

Booking Form

We are happy to help you plan your private charter on Kismet! Let us know what you're interested in and will respond within 24 hours.

Welcome to Southern Wonder!

Dreams do come true 

46 ft JEFFERSON SUNDECK  CLASSIC MOTOR YACHT

Southern Wonder Yacht Charters was created after years of searching for the perfect yacht to cruise the coastal waters of Charleston, South Carolina and the dream of life long friends who share a passion for the sea and eventually for each other.  Captain Mike and his first mate Poe started as neighbors in San Diego and continued their friendship over the past two decades, often getting together for Caribbean sailing trips and other adventures.  After years of sailing the  San Francisco Bay Mike sold his charter company and followed Poe to Charleston, who has lived in Mt. Pleasant for the last 20 years raising 2 handsome boys.  Life brought us together to share our passion of adventure and the water with our friends, family and amazing clients. We would love to have you and your group on board with us.
