Beyond the Marshwalk — Adventure on the Intracoastal

Murrells Inlet is the seafood capital of South Carolina and home to the legendary Marshwalk. But the water doesn't stop at the restaurant docks. Fifteen minutes north, Island Adventure Watersports sits on the Intracoastal Waterway in a stretch of protected nature preserve that feels like a different world.

If you've spent the morning crabbing off the Marshwalk or browsing Brookgreen Gardens, our jet ski tours, boat rentals, and tiki cruises are the perfect way to turn a good day into an unforgettable one.

Backcountry jet ski tour near Murrells Inlet

Backcountry Jet Ski Tour — The Natural Extension of Your Murrells Inlet Experience

Murrells Inlet visitors already appreciate nature and the water — our Backcountry Tour takes that appreciation to another level. This 2-hour guided jet ski adventure covers 50+ miles of the Intracoastal through hidden tributaries.

Halfway through, you'll stop at a secluded nature preserve — Sandy Island. Our guides know every turn of the waterway and point out wildlife along the route. No experience necessary. It's the top-rated outdoor activity in the Myrtle Beach area and the one thing Murrells Inlet visitors say they wish they'd found sooner. Prefer to ride on your own? Our 1-hour jet ski rentals let you explore at your own pace.

Wakeboarding on the Intracoastal Waterway near Murrells Inlet

Wakeboarding & Tubing — Flat Water + Pro Instruction

The Intracoastal's calm, flat water makes it one of the best wakeboarding spots on the East Coast — and most people don't even know it exists. Our 2-hour sessions include a Super Air Nautique wakeboat, professional instructor/captain, all equipment, and unlimited attempts.

Not ready for the board? Tubing is another option with this boat. It's pure adrenaline for kids and adults alike — and on flat freshwater, there's no chop to worry about.

What Guests Are Saying

"We drove up from Murrells Inlet for the backcountry tour and it was worth every minute. The waterways are absolutely beautiful — herons, ospreys, the whole experience was magical. Better than anything we did on the ocean."
