Coastal Carolina Fishing Charters
Coastal Carolina Fishing Charters LLC is a fishing guide service that specializes in nearshore and offshore fishing out of Charleston SC. Captain Chris and his crew offer offshore fishing trips all year long. Coastal Carolina Fishing Charters is a family-owned business dedicated to providing great hospitality, excellent service, and sharing their passion for fishing with others.
The boat you’ll be fishing from is “Lady Savannah Tide”, named in honor of Capt. Chris’s best friend mother, Savannah. An amazing, loving, and caring woman who always believed in his dreams. The boat is a 26’ center console Sports fisherman’s Scout, designed for hardcore offshore fishing. She’s equipped with twin 150 HP Yamaha engines, outriggers, VHF radio, Garmin radar, GPS, and sonar, Satellite radio, bathroom, Yeti Cooler, Live wells, fish boxes, sink, and top of the line fishing equipment.
Choose the trip that fits your needs best. You can stay close to the shore or head out up to 50 miles offshore, targeting Black Seabass, Snapper, Grouper, Bank Bass, Triggerfish, Cobia, Amberjack, Porgy, and much more. Nearshore trips can take you after King Mackerel, Cobia, Flounder, and Bluefish.
There’s not a lot of preparation from your end, as the crew takes care of everything important - all fishing equipment, licenses, and drinks. You only need to pack your camera, sunglasses, and hats.
Coastal Carolina Fishing Charters welcomes anglers of all ages and skill levels, so hop aboard!

Capt Chris & his brother Dave were outstanding. They were very friendly and very helpful. As my wife said, it's obvious these two young men were raised right. Capt Chris made sure to put us on fish & kept the action coming throughout the trip. This was my wife's first ever fishing trip and they made sure we had a great day on the water & made some great memories. I will definitely contact him again the next time I want to take a fishing trip out of Charleston.

Fishing with Christopher
Fishing wth Captain Chris Arnold was a truly memorable experience for my family: two grandsons, ages 25&26, grandson-in-law 28, and my two sons-in-law 59. I am just south of 78 and diagnosed with Parkinson's, 3+ years ago. First of alI, I must say that Captain Chris was the most gracious and accomodating individual I could possibly have selected to provide such a fun filled family day. I was first on, as well as first off the boat and well cared for all the time in between Finding fish was definitly not a problem. Captain Chris moved from one marked area to another keeping the action pretty much continuous. I may be w r o n g, but It seemed as though the moves were predicated on the timing of the sharks arriving and starting to becoming just a bit bothersome. If such were the case, it did not work very well because two shark encounters have been etched into the fabric for future years of stories to be told and retold! Briefly, the first is of the five footers (which I know grew probably 12-18 inches in the first few tellngs) hooked and the fellows took turns on the pole for over an hour before he broke off. The second was when the youngest grandson had by far the biggest gamefish of the day getting very near to our Monday evening fish-fry, when the shark attacked! Leaving just the head as a momento of the most fun day of fishing I ever experienced! Many thanks again from all to Captain Christopher Arnold. in HIS service, Hilbert Kamps

6 hr trip offshore with CPT Chris Arnold
Chris was professionalism is unmeasurable! He went to the full extent to ensure that my family had a great time. He sought out the fish to create the experience we were looking for. His boat was clean, the ride was smooth, and energy on the boat could not have been any better. I will for sure book with Chris again and I recommend CPT Chris and his boat before all others.
