The Battery
The Battery/ White Point Gardens is located at the southern most tip of the Charleston Peninsula, where Murray Blvd. and East Battery (East Bay) Street meet. We recommend walking the park to indulge in the 18th century cannons, historical statues, picturesque gazebo, and a perfect view of Fort Sumter in the harbor.
King Street Shopping District
The most famous shopping area of Charleston is located between Broad and Spring Streets. Sprinkled throughout are great bars & restaurants in case you need a little 'sit down' between your sprees! This vibrant area is divided into three known sections: Lower King Street District Located between Broad and Market Streets, this well-known King Street Antique District, was voted "best antique shopping in the US" by readers of Travel & Leisure Magazine. Middle King Street District Located between Market and Calhoun Streets, and otherwise known as the King Street Fashion District, you'll find the trendiest stores and updated fashions in the area. Upper King Street District Located between Francis Marion Square (on Calhoun Street) and Spring Street, this King Street Design District houses some of the best interior design decor and home furnishing shopping in the country.
Sullivan's Island
Sullivan's Island and Isle of Palms are two beautiful beaches that are located not far from downtown or Mount Pleasant.
Folly Beach
Folly Beach, or "the Edge of America," has been on occasion dubbed the 'eccentric' beach of all the Charleston beaches. Probably because it's managed to stay true to the old way of beach life as it was back in the day. However it hasn't been without its own challenges of upcoming developments of condos and obsessive beach houses. Still, there is a wondrous air about Folly that you can only experience first hand while visiting there. There is great surfing, fishing on the pier, kid friendly currents, and water sports near the only ocean front hotel of Charleston, The Tides.
Shem Creek
Shem Creek is lined with great restaurants with a beautiful view. It also boasts a pier that you can watch the sunset and wildlife, including dolphins and manatees. You can also rent paddleboards and kayaks to enjoy the water.
Isle of Palms
Isle of Palms is a beautiful beach located just north of Sullivan's Island.
