Two hours, four water sports, one boat. You pick what you ride

A private 2-hour water sports session on Hilton Head Island's waterways with a USCG captain who drives and assists. Choose from water skis, wakeboard, knee board or tube, and split the time however your group wants. All skill levels welcome, all equipment provided, and the boat holds up to six passengers.

Step-by-step itinerary

Private water ski adventure

• Meet USCG captain
• Enjoy skiing and water sports
• Use tube, wakeboard, knee board
• Optional lunch at Old Daufuskie Crab Co.

The experience

You're on the water within the hour, and the captain handles the boat while you handle the rope. The Parker ski boat carries up to six of you, and whatever you want to ride (skis, wakeboard, knee board, tube) is already on board. You can spend the full two hours on one thing or rotate through all of them. The captain reads what your group wants and adjusts the day to match. No experience needed. The captain assists in the water and knows how to set up each sport for the level you're at.

The waterways around Hilton Head are the route, and you're not locked into a fixed itinerary. If you want to pack your own lunch and drinks, bring them along. If you'd rather eat out, the captain can pull off at Old Daufuskie Crab Co., a low country spot on the water where you can grab food and stay on the clock. The two hours is your window. What fills it is up to you.

What’s included

• USCG-certified captain to drive and assist.

Is this one for you?This is a private boat for your group alone, so you set the pace and pick which sports to try without waiting for others or sticking to a set schedule. Choose it if you want the flexibility to rotate between water sports or focus on one, and if having a captain handle the boat while you focus on the water matters more than a guided tour of the island.
