What lighthouses do we sail past?

Is the pier near Joe's Crab Shack? No. The website does not show a Joe's Crab Shack in Charleston, SC http://www.joescrabshack.com/locations.php?zipCode=29401

How much does a van cost from the pier to the airport?

[KroozFoolz]

I found these sites for lighthouses and taxi rates:

 

Lighthouses - http://www.lighthousefriends.com/sc.html

Taxi rates - http://www.chs-airport.com/taxi.htm - don't know how up to date it is

[Susie51]

Kroozfoolz, thank you for so many links. I have seen these lighthouses from the land, but not from a ship. I hope we sail by several of them.

 

Has any one done this cruise? Is embarkation and debarkation easy?

 

In our group we will have one in a wheelchair and prehaps two. Mom thinks because it is a small ship she will be able to get along with only her walker with a seat. She can do a limited amout of walking.

[Susie51]

I'm sorry I had the name wrong. It is Charleston Crab Shack. From your links I did a search and found it.
