• We run charters year around 7 days a week; Office hours are Monday through Friday 8 AM until 6 PM calls or text outside of these hours will be answered on the next business day.
• Times of departure depend upon the tides on the day of reservation. Time of departure will be on your reservation confirmation sent to you. When you arrive for your Charter, please have your reservation confirmation pulled up on your phone as that is your boarding pass.
• No age restrictions or limits on booking our charter services. No charge for children four years old and younger.
• All our charters are five hours in duration.
• Our charters center on shark teeth hunting.
• Cost is $120 per person.

Our basic walking shark tooth hunting excursions are UNGUIDED HUNTS. You will be using your own skill set to find teeth and fossils. Your captain and First Mate Heather will give you as many pointers as possible and put you in the right place at the right time. We always have someone on the beach with you to help with general questions and/or guidance free of charge.

GUIDED HUNTS are HIGHLY recommended for those with limited to no hunting experience. With a GUIDED HUNT, you will have one of our knowledgeable fossil hunters right by your side, helping you identify your finds while teaching you about fossils and sharks’ teeth. GUIDED HUNTS are an additional flat rate of $300 per group to be paid to your Guide via cash the day of your Charter.

Our charters require mobility, agility, and ability to walk 3 to 4 miles in a four hour period, as well as boarding and departing the boat on a small step ladder. Please be sure all participants meet these criteria.

DAY OF CHARTER DIRECTIONS:

• Check your phone if there is dangerous weather in the area. Once a charter is booked, we go rain or shine. The only thing that will cause cancellation is active thunderstorms at the time of departure. If there are active thunderstorms at the time of embarkation, we do one of two things:
1. We pull up the radar and try to see if the thunderstorms will work their way through and then proceed to the hunting grounds;
2. OR we completely cancel the Charter for that day; in this case you will be given the choice to reschedule or to receive a refund. We will contact you via the phone number you provided if the charter is cancelled.

• Departure Location and Parking: Tolers Cove Marina, 1610 Ben Sawyer Blvd, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464

As soon as you turn onto Marsh Harbor Road park immediately in the parking lot on your right hand side.  You will meet first mate Heather at this location to be escorted to the boat.

• ARRIVAL: Please be 15 minutes early for your charter. The time of your reservation is the time the boat departs and returns. The boat leaves promptly at these times.

• Remember if you choose GUIDED HUNT, you will pay the additional $300 at the time of the charter.
