Coastal Eco-Charters, Inc.                     

Coastal Eco-Charters is now partnering with NOAA research scientists! 

Data collected from YOUR charter will help biologist protect our estuary and ocean waters from harmful algae.

 "Our Eco-Charters meet State of SC & National Biology Curriculum Standards."

This is not your typical "Eco-Tour" where passengers are crowded on a large boat. We do not speed through the creeks, harrass wildlife, and I do not read a script about the wildlife. Each charter is unique, based on real science, and what you want to know.
