Travel Note
Accommodations
For out of town guests, we recommend staying in West Ashley, Johns Island, James Island, or downtown Charleston. There are great Airbnb/VRBO options in all four areas, as well as several hotels in West Ashley and downtown. Because there are so many options, we have not reserved a room block at any specific hotel chain, so please choose whichever you prefer.
Things To Do
Classic Charleston Bucket List
Explore the peninsula! On foot or bike is best. With a dog is even better. Wander along the neighborhoods south of Broad Street to see the beautiful homes painted in Colors of Historic Charleston with gas lit lanterns and flower window boxes. Spot all the church steeples peeping through and see why Charleston is called the Holy City. Get lost in the little alleyways and cobblestone streets. Meander down Stolls Alley. Peak through all the wrought iron gates and get glimpses of charming gardens. Wear some comfortable shoes, and if you get tired just take a rickshaw to your next destination! Stroll down Rainbow Row. Head to The Battery and walk along the harbor. Take in the scenery at Joe Riley Waterfront Park. Grab a pic of Charleston's classic Pineapple Fountain, where Kondwani proposed! Relax on the pier and enjoy the breeze. Hop on a carriage tour. Everyone will know you're not a local but go for it! Window shop on King Street. Stop at Grit and Grace Studio for a souvenir.
Classic Charleston Bucket List Cont.
Visit Magnolia Plantation and Gardens or Middleton Place off the Ashley River, right down the way from Julie's house. Soak in the southern beauty and get a glimpse back in time. Stare in awe at Angel Oak Tree. It’s worth the quick stop. Hang out at Shem Creek. Grab a beer at Red's. Walk the docks. Drop a kayak in at sunset and paddle with the dolphins. Walk the Ravenel Bridge and visit Mount Pleasant Memorial Waterfront Park underneath. Tour the USS Yorktown or take a helicopter ride. Ride a bike or get some steps in at James Island County Park.
Great Eats
Leon's for oysters and the best fried chicken. Upper King Street. A matron of honor favorite. Millers All Day for breakfast or brunch. Downtown. Put in your name and take a walk while you wait. Halls Chophouse for the best steak you'll ever eat. You'll spend a penny but it's so worth it. Obstinate Daughter on Sullivan's Island. Or Poe's for a burger. No need to drive further, can head to Sullivan's beach afterwards. Park at Battery Thompson for access to the main strip and the beach. Mondo's for the best Italian food around (the Scott's have high standards). Everything is made in house. Go early cause they don't take reservations, and don't skip the cherry amoretto gelato, oh my heavens. Bowens Island. Super fun, casual spot serving up delicious fried seafood and Frogmore Stew aka Low Country Boil. Great spot for sunset. Tomato Shed Cafe for farm fresh home cooked meals. Tomato pie anyone? Second State Coffee for some caffeine. Try Colonial Lake for parking.
Great Eats Cont.
This list could go on and on... Husk. Magnolia’s. 167 Raw Oyster Bar. Edmund’s Oast. Lewis Barbecue. Basic Kitchen. Early Bird Diner. Carmella’s or Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams for dessert. It's hard to go wrong with food in Charleston.
Beaches
Kiawah. Julie's favorite. The drive to get there will melt your heart. Amazing golf course. If you go on the weekend, make sure to head there early to get a parking spot at the public beach (Kiawah Beachwalker Park). Folly. Your classic beach town. Make sure to check out the lighthouse. Sullivan's Island. Park along neighborhood streets near the beautiful coastal homes. Go to Station 28.5 to catch kiteboarders. Julie got baptized at the beach at Station 18! Heads up, there are no restroom facilities.
Day Trips and Other Adventures
Botany Bay on Edisto Island. Unspoiled nature preserve of the lowcountry with Spanish moss-draped oaks, walking trails, and untouched Driftwood Beach. About an hour drive from Charleston. Type Boneyard Beach Parking into your GPS to get to the stunning driftwood beach. Charleston Tea Plantation or Deepwater Vineyard in Wadmalaw (30-45 minute drive depending on where you’re coming from). Savannah, Georgia. Just keep heading south on 17 about an hour and 45 minutes. Charleston Aquarium if it’s a rainy day and you need something to do indoors. ~We hope you enjoy your stay in Charleston! The World is Your Oyster!~ Love, Julie and Kondwani
