Castaway Island Excursions is a true family-owned and operated business. Castaway was created with the hope of providing Charleston locals and tourists alike an opportunity to experience all that the South Carolina low country has to offer! There is no other beauty quite like that of Folly Beach. From the quirky locals, gorgeous scenery, long beaches, stunning sunsets, and abundant wildlife that fills the rivers and creeks, there is no lack of excitement.

At Castaway, we are lucky enough to share a prime location with Crosby’s Fish & Shrimp Co. on Folly Creek. Our location allows us to launch our kayaks and paddleboards straight from our back door as well as our boat departing from the dock. If you’re lucky, you can catch Crosby’s food truck when it’s open and grab some lunch before or after your trip!

Our Captains, guides, and employees are trained and extremely knowledgeable when it comes to these waterways, and we hope to give everyone the best possible experience in Charleston!

Castaway strives to carry only American-made kayaks and boards to provide guests with the highest quality products. We also promise to support our local community as much as possible through fundraising events and group activities while also raising environmental awareness and protecting the beauty of our home through litter clean-ups along our beaches and barrier islands.
