Keen Eye Charters Inshore
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 you're looking to keep fish, we highly recommend booking an offshore charter! We practice catch and release on all inshore game fish. The navigation technology it uses is comprised of modern GPS and a 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 are 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.
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 fewer.
Come aboard and have a great experience on the water with Keen Eye Charters!

Joel ShasteenRepeat angler5.0VerifiedBest Kiawah Charter
Nearshore Fishing 4 Hour (AM) on June 5, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Keen has been chartering for 25 years and it’s clear that he loves what he does. He is knowledgeable about the area and got us some fish quickly. We brought two eight-year-olds with us. He explained things easily and had lots of patience with them. I will continue to charter with him every time we come down! I would highly recommend that you ask his opinion on what to fish and trust his judgment
Jamie Wanty-keederRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat day - Great Captain - Fun!
Inshore Fishing (3hr ) - 1:00 PM on March 30, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain 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.

Tom Reigeluth5.0VerifiedExcellent fishing trip
Inshore Fishing (3hr ) on August 1, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 childFun 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.
Kristen Snyder5.0VerifiedHighlight of the trip for our son!
Shark Fishing (1PM) on May 15, 2025 • 5 adults • 2 childrenTook a nice boat ride out to our fishing spot and then promptly caught our first bonnet head. We were able to catch two more during our two hour trip and it was the perfect amount of time to be out with two kids who have short attention spans. They will 💯 go home and tell their friends about how they caught a shark on vacation. Thank you Chris for answering 1000 questions and making our first charter such a positive experience.
Michael Kirk5.0VerifiedHad a great time with my 8 year old. Will definitely be back
Inshore Fishing (3hr ) on June 2, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 childThis was our second time in shore fishing out of Bohicket, and first time with Keen eye fishing charters. Easy to book and had a great experience, we will definitely be back to try out the near shore then eventually the offshore. We hit up a few different spots and Captain Chris did a great job helping my daughter cast and putting her right on the fish.
