Things To Do
Riverfront Park
Riverfront Park is located on the former Charleston Naval Base. Riverfront Park is home to the Greater Charleston Naval Base Memorial, erected in honor of the countless military personnel and civilians that served the United States and the Greater Charleston region while the Charleston Navy Base was operational. The Memorial is the only location in the United States that displays both the Lone Sailor and the Homecoming statues.
Historic Charleston City Market
Charleston City Market is one of the nation's oldest public markets. Now a popular tourist destination composed of 200-year old brick market buildings with shops and restaurants.
The Battery
The Battery in Charleston is a fortified seawall and promenade. It is one of downtown Charleston’s most visited spots. The wall stretches along the shore of the Charleston peninsula, bordered by the Ashley and Cooper Rivers which come together to form the Charleston Harbor. In 1737 Broughton’s Battery, later called Fort Wilkins, was built here. During the 1750's, a seawall was constructed using large boulders, stone, and masonry. Broughton’s Battery was later decommissioned and demolished in 1789. When a new wall and its promenade were completed in the 1820's, locals still referred to it as “The Battery.” Today the Battery is bordered by historic antebellum mansions and offers majestic views of Fort Sumter, Castle Pinckney, the USS Yorktown, Fort Moultrie, and Sullivan's Island lighthouse. The Battery is a popular spot for both tourists and joggers. While visiting the Battery, many tourists also visit White Point Garden which is directly across the street.
