Miles of white sand and romantic island resorts beckon from the hem of the Palmetto State. Families gravitate to Myrtle Beach and the 60-mile span of Grand Strand, where over 100 championship golf courses, tennis courts and nightclubs await. Charlestons hundreds of heritage buildings, and irresistible charm, are part of its allure. Beach resorts at Kiawah Island, Seabrook and Edisto Island make for romantic getaways. Marshes, moss-bearded palms and oak groves create ambiance in the haunting Lowcountry.

The beaches of the Grand Strand are beautiful and the selection of restaurants and surfer shops are virtually unlimited along Ocean Blvd. Be prepared for heavy traffic, even on the bypass. Leave early for dinner if you're going to Calabash or Murrell 's Inlet.. I lived and worked in this area for many years.

#1 - disregard some of the CRUDE / RUDE comments from some people commenting about cost to take the trip to Fort Sumter - even for a family of 4 or 5. This is run by the National Park Service (federal government) and you do take a tour boat out into Charleston Harbor to Fort Sumter. It takes SERIOUS $$$$ to keep up such a National Treasure with the throngs of people who go their every single day (except holidays). Restoration, upkeep, and improving things is not cheap when done properly and accurately. That being said, going inside the Education Center "COSTS NOTHING" to view the artifacts and history being told, should you not be able to afford taking the boat tour to Fort Sumter. Side note - nothing in Charleston is really that cheap for carriage rides / tours / museums / Aquarium / etc. - so the $23 is not bad, but I do understand for a family of 4 or more - it may be fairly expensive. The other tour boats DO NOT STOP at Fort Sumter and allow people to walk around inside. Only the Park Service offers those tours - so you pay or don't go to the Fort. I'm sure same people complaining don't complain about Disney World / Universal Studios / etc (which are outrageous and NOT REAL AMERICAN HISTORY)! The "whole" tour takes approx 2.5 hours, with only about 1 hour at the fort - which is not nearly enough time to listen to the approx 10 minute overview by a Park Ranger and then see the fort. Our tour had over 100+ people so it's pretty crowded when that many people in a small fort - yes Fort Sumter is small. I'd suggest going on the last tour of the day at 2:30 pm. The fort closes at 4 pm and they lower the HUGE flag during that tour and ask for help from people on the tour, esp military & vets to assist with folding the flag. It's about 30 ft x 50 ft or bigger, so many hands are needed to fold it every day it flies. The Civil War and the role Fort Sumter played in it's start is very misunderstood by most people - esp those from the north. This Education Center and the fort itself help to teach people the REAL REASONS for the war and why Fort Sumter was a part of it. Knowledge is power and if we all understand WHY, then we all have a better understanding for the actions that followed; not the trash they teach or don't teach in schools today.
