Reviews for Ride The Tide: Premier Jet Ski Rentals in Myrtle Beach

I can't say enough good things about this team. I reached out to arrange a sunset cruise as a surprise for my Mom’s 60th birthday. They made the whole process of getting tickets for her and our cousin so easy. After the cruise, both my Mom and cousin called me, absolutely thrilled — you could hear the joy in my Mom’s voice. The captain and his crew went above and beyond to make her birthday truly special. Turning 60 was bittersweet for my Mom, as she and my Dad (who passed away a few years ago) used to joke about it together. Thanks to the care and kindness of the crew, what could have been a difficult day became one filled with happiness and beautiful memories. We are forever grateful. Thank you all so much!

Had the absolute pleasure of booking the sunset dolphin cruise with Capt Forest & Spencer, we were even joined by Capt Jason. Very professional staff & the cruise didn’t disappoint it was a gorgeous evening and we saw a pod of dolphins. It was such an amazing experience and one I will cherish for years to come.

Went here for spring break with the family and had a fantastic time. The staff was very friendly, funny and knowledgeable. They had snacks and drinks you could purchase on the ride. They knew the best places to see wildlife (dolphins, birds, etc) and offered suggestions on where to eat. Would definitely do it again.

From the second, we got to the ticket booth We had an amazing experience. The Captain Forest and his crew made us feel welcomed and at ease right away. As soon as we stepped on the boat, we knew we were in for a great time. The captain and staff were very knowledgeable and attentive. They make one great piña colada. The island excursion was a lot of fun and of course we did see dolphins. Can’t say enough great things about our time on this boat. We will definitely be returning and without a doubt recommend this to anyone in the area looking for something fun to do.

My family and I had a great time. It was well worth it. We saw several dolphins and the crew was friendly and super knowledgeable. The stop at Bird Island was awesome too. We felt safe also the entire time with the crew. Excellent job guys!

We booked the 3-5pm cruise and really enjoyed ourselves! Captain Forrest and his First Mate, Tyler, were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We saw 1 dolphin near the entrance to the ocean, and 5 more as we were out from the North Carolina coast. Very cool! On the boat, they sold water, Gatorade and various cans of alcoholic beverages at a reasonable price. The music on the boat was awesome! Even with going over some larger waves at the inlet's entrance, we always felt safe. We also enjoyed stopping at one of the islands near the inlet's entrance and finding lots of live snails and a small, Fiddler's Crab. The entire experience was very relaxing and a lot of fun. We plan to do it again next year. For $35/person, it was totally worth it!

Captain Ben and his first mate were amazing. Took this excursion on my first anniversary with my husband and it was amazing. Captain Ben was very informative about things along the waterway. Boat was safe and well kept up. The ride was thrilling. They're was not a dry seat or person when the trip was over. I would recommend this to everyone and trust and believe i will be doing this again with this company. I now want to try their other excursions due to the experience received with them today.

Wow! What a great find! Came across this cruise while looking at Groupon in anticipation of our spring break trip to Myrtle Beach. Travelled with my husband, two 17 yr old boys, and our 13 yr old daughter. Because the ocean was too cold to swim in and the weather was in the 60s, we decided to book this dolphin cruise to have some time outside on the water. We were not disappointed. Called the company several days ahead to confirm and Benjamin, the owner, was friendly, efficient, and responsive. Captain Forrest and Lt. “Dan” Tyler were helpful, friendly, and humerous. Loved the music, anbility to purchase drinks/snacks, and Forrest’s knowledge and explanation of the flora/fauna/history of the area. Saw some dolphins but really enjoyed stopping at the island for 15-20 minutes to explore the tide pools there. Be sure to look for the crabs! Not many boats in the water this time of year so it was extremely enjoyable. We had the island to ourselves. Highly recommend!!!!

What an awesome experience we had on our boat tour! Captain Jason and First Mate Chip were very friendly, and knowledgeable, sharing great stories of the history of the water and surrounding areas on our way out to the Atlantic. We pulled on to a beautiful little island where we would be able to explore for a bit. We took off our shoes, rolled up our pant legs and took a few steps off the front of the catamaran and into the water. Our trip was in March and the water is still cold but it was a beautiful day with the sun shining so the few steps in the cold water didn’t bother us. We were able to walk around the island a bit and explore until we heard the horn calling us back and it was time to board the vessel again. We did see one dolphin on our tour, I wasn’t disappointed in not seeing more dolphins because the sun was shining, great music was playing, I had a cold drink in my hand, and the captain even had everyone say Happy Birthday to my husband! I would definitely recommend this tour and will be back to book another trip on my next visit to Myrtle Beach! Be sure to tip your captain and his mate, they deserve it!

We have taken the tour 3 years in a row now. Unfortunately we didn't see dolphins the last time. But it was after the last major storm so we weren't upset. Besides the 2 hour ride was very enjoyable! Captain Forrest allowed my granddaughters to drive the boat. That was the highlight of the tour for me! Thank you for another great afternoon! We'll see ya next year! By far the best touring service in Myrtle!! We tried several before finding Southern Shores!!

This was our first trip to Myrtle Beach and we wanted to pick a fun adventure for one evening. Dolphins are my favorite animal so I was excited when I discovered Southern Shores! We had an incredible experience thanks to the kindness & intentionality of our Captain & First Mate— Forrest & Ireland! We had the privilege of seeing a dolphin, and docking on the island was serene and stunning. I’ve already recommended Southern Shores to a friend who’s visiting Myrtle Beach next week. We will definitely do this again! Thanks so much, Forrest, Ireland & the rest of the Southern Shores crew! ☺️

We absolutely Loved Southern Shores Island and Dolphin Cruise experience. We took the evening sunset cruise on June 3, 2024. Kenny was First Mate and was so friendly and amazing! Forest was our Captain and we absolutely loved him. Great play list and great boat ride. We did see one dolphin, which was so cool to watch. The boat ride alone was an Amazing experience. You won’t be disappointed! Please do not forget to tip them. They really do a Great Job!!!
