Things To Do

Nexton Square

801 Nexton Square Drive, Summerville, SC 29486

There are a lot of great restaurants in this area! D'Alessandro's pizza has really tasty specialty pizzas, our favorites being the "Pesto Pollo" and "Beetnick". The Cod Father has really good fish and chips. Bad Daddy's Burger Bar has an incredible selection of burgers as well as other sandwiches. Patrick's top pick in the area is Tropical Smoothie Cafe (he would go every day if he could!). There are a lot of different restaurants to choose from, so be sure to check it out if you get a chance.

Azalea Park

105 West 5th South Street, Summerville, SC 29483

This is where Patrick proposed! There are a couple short walking trails, gazebos, ponds, and a new children's area that was finished this year. We love looking for turtles and frogs in the ponds around the park.

Edisto Beach State Park

8377 State Cabin Road, Edisto Island, SC 29438

This is our preferred place to park along Edisto beach. We have found quite a lot of shark teeth along the water as well as other treasures like sand dollars, starfish, and so many shells of different colors and shapes. Just make sure none of the shells have anything living inside! Feel free to ask either of us for tips on finding shark teeth if that is something you are interested in.

Cypress Gardens

3030 Cypress Gardens Road, Moncks Corner, SC 29461

Cypress gardens has guided and self-guided boat tours (get to see alligators in their natural habitat!), a butterfly house, a reptile house, and more. Fun Fact: it was used as a filming site for "The Notebook", "The Patriot", and several other movies and TV shows.
