Explore the flavors, sights, sounds, and traditions found only in Charleston, South Carolina. Feel the sand between your toes. Savor fresh from the dock seafood and explore the immaculately well preserved historic sites. The city feels a bit like it’s suspended in time, thanks to its antebellum architecture and surrounding plantation landscapes. Take in incredible views of the Battery and the French Quarter as you stroll the Waterfront Park, then become inspired by the cultivated beauty of the gardens at Middleton Place. At night, try a ghost tour for an introduction to the spooky side of the city.
