Shem Creek History Walking Tour

This 2 - 2.5 hour event combines everything we love about the Lowcountry. We start with a leisurely walking tour that starts at the Shem Creek Park and ends on the dock in front of Vickery's Bar & Grill. We will share the history of Shem Creek from its early use in the 1700's through today & its importance to the Shrimping Industry in Charleston. We will discuss the economic & environmental impact of this picturesque area to our community and give you an up close view of real shrimp boats as they operate along the Creek. We end our tour with a complimentary beverage at Vickery's Bar & Grill so you can enjoy the beautiful vista only available on Shem Creek. This tour has all the elements we love here - history, the great outdoors, & a cool drink to enjoy while relishing the best view in Charleston.

We are not responsible for anyone who has an allergic reaction to shrimp, please be aware of food allergies before eating any shrimp. The shrimp boats located on Shem Creek are working boats and if they are at the docks, they will be sorting their catch and getting it ready for shipment. Large coolers will be coming and going along the dock so be sure to give them plenty of space to pass, we don't wish to interfere with their livelihood.

Reservations are required because we need to ensure we have enough shrimp for the shrimp boil. Cash Only at the tour site, if you want to pay by credit card, please purchase your tickets online.

TICKETS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE UNLESS THE TOUR IS CANCELLED BY PEGASUS CHARTERS. POP UP SHOWERS ARE COMMON DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS AND MOVE THROUGH QUICKLY. WE WILL CONTACT YOU IF WE NEED TO CANCEL.

The Complimentary children ticket is for the tour only. Let me know if you want your child to share in the shrimp & beverage, an additional charge of $10 will apply.

Tickets are available for just the walking tour, no food or drink if you aren't a fan of shrimp.

The walking tour covers approximately 1 mile.
