Had a great time with Robert. We learned a lot about fishing and some history about the islands. Very good at what he does!! So much fun with the kids!

Great to hear you had a fun trip with Robert. Wish I could have taken you but sounds like Robert did a great job which he always does. Hope we can take you fishing again next time your in town.

Half Day Trip - 1:30 PM

Very good fishing with guide Joseph, we caught a lot of sheepshead, rock fish, shark, caught very large size stingray for inshore fishing, perch, and some really good size reds, me and my boys had a blast while we’re on vacation I would highly recommend barrier island ecotours, my 3 boys carters, cj, and Kayden it was very enjoyable to see them struggle to reel in some decent sized fish. Definitely I will schedule another visit when I am in town on vacation again.

Thank you Robert for your wonderful review and the pictures! When I can’t do the trips it’s usually Joseph. I knew you would be in excellent hands with him. So glad you want to come back! We look forward to next time!

What a day to remember on the Isle of Palms! Captain Joseph steered us through shimmering waters like a true legend, his calm voice guiding every cast. We all reeled in our share-big ones, small ones, the kind that make your heart skip. Laughter echoed across the boat as stories flew, bonds deepened under that endless blue sky. Pure magic, folks. If you’re seeking adventure with soul, book with him-you won’t just catch fish, you’ll catch memories.

Fishing Memories with Captain Joseph

VERIFIED

We had an excellent fishing trip with Captain Joseph off Isle of Palms, South Carolina. His knowledge of the local waters and fishing techniques was impressive, leading us to catch several fish. Captain Joseph was friendly, professional, and ensured everyone on board felt comfortable. The 23’ Epic vessel was well-equipped and perfect for our inshore adventure. I highly recommend Captain Joseph’s charter for an enjoyable and productive fishing.
