Downtown sightseeing

The Battery

Gorgeous neighborhood downtown with some must see beauties - Rainbow row, the Pineapple fountain, Historic city Market, and some of the most stunning homes on the Peninsula. Grab a coffee at bakehouse, desert at carmelas and/or hydrate at the Vendue rooftop. If you are a lover of unique cocktails - make a stop at The Gin Joint.

Shem Creek

Paddleboard, kayak, fish, dolphin watch, hop on a boat and cruise the harbor, walk the pier, sample all the amazing restaurants on the creek. An absolute staple in the low country and home to some of the most spectacular sunsets.

Park Circle

Casual, low key, really fun spot to walk around and bar hop. So many options to eat and drink. Check for farmers markets and events in the neighborhood while you’re visiting. Tattooed moose and commonhouse ale works are favorites.

Beaches

Isle of Palms

Check the live music schedule at the Windjammer. They have amazing shows on their outdoor stage - nothing better than concerts on the beach. For a more “private” beach experience check out Breach Inlet, its between IOP and Sullivans and you’re almost guaranteed to see dolphins at sunset.
