One of the go to beaches for locals in Charleston! There is also a quaint strip of bars and restaurants for when you're getting hungry or need a refreshment.
One of the oldest public markets in the nation. Home to more than 300 various vendors selling anything and everything you can imagine. Even if you don't plan on shopping, it's well worth a visit! Very easily accessible from downtown.
Trendy seafood restaurant right in downtown Charleston. Expect fresh seafood and great cocktails! Show up early to put your name in, because the wait can get long.
Where Jen and Alex had their first meal and drinks when scouting Charleston! Wonderful French bistro with a food and drink menu that anyone can enjoy.
Awesome laid back seafood "joint" with fun drinks and the best fried chicken Alex has had in years. A little removed from all the commotion of downtown!
Awesome local Charleston brewery with a laidback vibe, great patio, and often live music.
Fort Sumter is where the first clash of the Civil War took place between the Union and Confederate armies. Perfect day tour for a history buff or someone interested in aspects of the military.
