Birthday Parties

The best kids birthday parties in Charleston happen on the water! Schedule a party at Coastal Expeditions on Shem Creek or Kiawah River and create an event that kids and parents equally enjoy. Just bring refreshments for after the boat adventure and let our guides handle the rest!

 

And what about safety? All of Coastal Expeditions’ custom-built boats are annually certified by the USCG and our captains hold Master Captain licenses. Since the Outdoor School team leads school field trips and kids camps year round, they hold certifications in first aid, lifeguarding and sea kayaking.

Fossil Hunting with Coastal Expeditions

Undoubtedly, kids of all ages love searching for fossilized shark teeth and other artifacts. While shark teeth and vertebrae are the most common finds, occasionally teeth from fossilized Megalodons, horses and camels are found!

On a Coastal Expeditions tour, our guides enthusiastically teach you how to spot them in the sand, and afterwards identity what you’ve found. These beach finds surely become treasured keepsakes!
