3. Voyager Dolphin Adventure Sunset Cruise



Voyager's two-and-a-half-hour sunset cruise is one of the longest dolphin tours on the Grand Strand, sailing up the Intracoastal Waterway and out to the Atlantic Ocean as the sky glows.

4. Enchanted Sailing Charters



If you’re looking for a truly romantic date, Myrtle Beach style, look no further than Enchanted Sailing Charters. Step aboard their elegant 44-foot Caribbean Sailing Yacht and enjoy an unforgettable evening on the water. With space for only six passengers, this sailboat is the perfect cruise for couples who want a private escape.

On board, there’s a small galley kitchen and a restroom below deck for convenience. There’s no formal bar or food service, but you’re more than welcome to bring your own champagne, wine, and snacks to enjoy during the sail, or you can opt for a catered dinner cruise.
