Keen Eye Charters welcomes you to Seabrook Island, South Carolina. Embark on an enjoyable inshore, nearshore or offshore fishing charter or a custom tour of your choice. The subtropical climate offers certain fish species year-round but there are also many seasonal species that visit the waters depending on the season. Captain Chris Keen will advise you on what to target in accordance with the time of year, weather, and tides. Come catch some fish, have some laughs, and enjoy all that the Low Country has to offer on the water.
Inshore/Nearshore you'll be fishing from a 24' Pathfinder bay boat. If your looking to keep fish we high reccomed booking a offshore charter! We practice catch and release on all inshore game fish. The navigation technology it uses is comprised of modern GPS, fishfinder, so you'll have no trouble locating the fish. There is also a livewell to supply you with live bait. Common species include sharks, redfish, sea trout, flounder, and more. Some species are seasonal. Two-hour charters for perfect for younger children. We can do some easy kid fishing, shark fishing, crab fishing plus you will see plenty of dolphins. If you select the late trip you get the added bonus of our beautiful sunsets.
Offshore you'll be fishing from a 31' Contender center console. The boat is equipped with twin 300hp Yamaha's, radio systems, epib, and sonar systems. Common species include grouper, snapper, cobia, mahi, tuna, sailfish, marlin, and many more! Some species are seasonal.

Captain Chris will take care of all the fishing gear and licenses, so you should just bring your favorite food and drinks.

We get a lot of questions regarding the number of people we are allowed to take on the boat. Per the US Coast Guard regulation we are licensed to take up to 6 people (captain not included). For an optimal experience we highly
recommend groups of 4 anglers or less.

Come aboard and have a great experience on the water with Keen Eye Charters!

Very knowledgeable and good with kids!
Inshore Fishing (3hr ) on March 31, 20261 adult1 child
Captain Chris did a great job. He explained everything well, was very knowledgeable about the area, and knew where to go to catch fish. He had a good assortment of baits and tackle. He made sure my 7 year old daughter caught fish and was having a good time. We fished for an hour or more, went off and got to see dolphins, and then headed back and finished up fishing. It was an awesome experience and will definitely book again in the future. The app was worked great - He's very fast to reply. Very good equipment - both boat and tackle.

Great day - Great Captain - Fun!
Inshore Fishing (3hr ) - 1:00 PM on March 30, 20262 adults
Captain Chris is such a nice man, he was informative and knowledgeable. Taking off from his dock he told us all about the local dolphins and we had a great little natual show. He tooks us to several places afterwards and we so enjoyed his easy instruction and great fishing locations. We caught some really interesting fish and he was so sweet amd knowledgeable/ informative about everything. Definitely a great captain that is so cordial and lets you lead how much conversation you’d like to have.

Excellent fishing trip
Inshore Fishing (3hr ) on August 1, 20252 adults1 child
Fun and exciting fishing expedition with Keen Eye Charters that met and exceeded our expectations. Chris is a very experienced guide that explained in detail how we would fish for shark, redfish, trout and flounder. He told us exactly how to hook and reel in the shark and my son and I both caught bonnet sharks. Then we went on to catch several trout, flounder and two more bonnet sharks. Chris provided excellent fishing tips and casting techniques to help us along the way. It was a great morning of fishing.
