New Tour Alert!
Capers Island is home to more than just beautiful beaches and the famous Boneyard. It’s also a great place to spot some of the Low country’s fascinating reptiles. On our new Capers Island Reptile Exploration Cruise, we’ll explore the island’s diverse habitats in search of reptiles and learn more about the species that call this undeveloped barrier island home. From the tidal marsh to the maritime forest and shoreline, every stop offers a chance to see the island from a different perspective and discover how these animals are adapted to life along the coast.
Led by a passionate herpetologist, this small-group exploration is all about slowing down, looking closely, and learning about the wildlife around us. Reptile sightings are never guaranteed, after all, they’re wild animals, but there may be some education animal ambassadors aboard! Below are important details for the adventure! Like what you see?
