Our favorite beach in Charleston! We had our first date here, love going on sunset dates here, and got ENGAGED here! We recommend parking at Sullivan's Island Baptist Church and walking straight down Station 18th Street to the beach. (Station 12 is where we got engaged!) While you are here, try out Mex 1 Coastal Cantina, Obstinate Daughter, or Home Team Barbeque for a good meal.
We love a beach day on Isle of Palms! This is Knox's favorite spot to come for sunrise. We highly recommend this beach to those with kids! There are showers and restrooms by Coconut Joe's. This beach has many public accesses, is lined with restaurants, and is very kid-friendly.
Our favorite places for a happy hour with friends or to walk the boardwalk! Shem Creek is lined with places to eat and drink, with stunning waterfront views, boats coming in and out, and possible dolphin sightings. You can even rent kayaks, boats, and more for a day out on the water!
