St. Phillips at Sunrise!

We’ll climb aboard the ferry at 6am to enjoy sunrise on the boat ride over, returning to campus around noon. This tour is planned around the tides, ensuring that you have plenty of beach to explore while you’re out on the island.
Beaufort Dolphin & History Cruise
As we cruise along the waterfront, the captain shares stories about local history, beginning with Native Americans and into Spanish exploration, French settlement and English colonization. Along the way, we’re likely to see playful bottlenose dolphins, nesting bald eagles and ospreys on the hunt.
