Winyah Bay Sailing Tours
Escape the Crowds – Sail the Lowcountry
The Grand Strand has plenty to offer, but if you're craving a quieter experience on the water, Winyah Bay is calling. GT Sailing Adventures offers a relaxing escape just 35 miles south in Georgetown, South Carolina.
​
Trade the busy boardwalk for the quiet waters of Winyah Bay—one of the largest and most pristine estuaries on the South Carolina coast. This isn't a party boat or a crowded dolphin tour. It's real sailing aboard a 43-foot yacht, with a maximum of 6 guests, on one of the most beautiful and unspoiled waterways in South Carolina.
Why Make the Drive from Myrtle Beach?
Winyah Bay offers protected waters ideal for comfortable sailing, surrounded by barrier islands, wildlife, and historic sites you won't find anywhere else on the Grand Strand. Our cruises pass Hobcaw Barony, the former retreat of Bernard Baruch, and on clear days you can see the Georgetown Lighthouse in the distance.
​
Our small-group charters (maximum 6 guests) aboard a 43-foot Dufour sailing yacht provide a personal, unhurried experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, planning a family outing, or simply want a peaceful afternoon on the water, this is sailing the way it should be.
