We wanted something fun to do during our last hours in Charleston, South Carolina. Our budget was kind of tight so we opted for the Charleston Water Taxi. My stepdaughter Princess L wanted to take a trip on a boat and it was only $14 a person.

It’s a trip around Charleston Harbor with four stops that takes about an hour.

It’s really used as a water taxi, obviously. It’s not a bad idea to get around some tourist attractions. The most notable is the USS Yorktown.

It was a decent little ride but the boat is definitely very bare basics. I was a little worried my stepdaughter would fall into the ocean because she would not sit still. My wife wanted to see if Alex would sit in his stroller but I opted for the baby carrier on my chest as I felt safer doing it that way. While we enjoyed ourselves, I definitely would rather go for a more expensive boat during our next trip.
