South Carolina has some great beaches along its eastern coast. Among the most notable of these is Myrtle Beach, the hub of the grand strand and the largest resort on the east coast of South Carolina. This silky stretch of white sand is great for water-sports such as sailing and surfing. South Carolina is also regarded as one of the top golfing destinations in America. South Carolina has some notable historic towns which are worth visiting such as Charleston.

Fort Moultrie

Federal headquarters for the National Park Service's historic properties located in Charleston and Fort Sumter.

Reviewed By ColeDT - Gloucester, United States

Smaller museum with gift shop. The rangers inside were extremely welcoming and nice! Museum was a one room with an attached theater that showed a short 15 minute movie about the Fort. However, we opted out of watching it. The grounds of the Fort were fun to walk around and explore. Our boys had a blast! The batteries overlook Sullivan Island and the views are great. Looking out we saw three dolphins close to shore playing. We spent a good hour and a half looking around the grounds. Then walked to the beach and enjoyed that for another thirty minutes. We were here in FEB, so its still a more quiet time in Charleston, so the beach was practically bare except for a few people walking their dogs. (Although I don't think this is a swimming beach because there is a huge sign talking about deadly current here) I don't think that is a seasonal sign, but I am not sure of this. Great place to visit, and we will visit again on a warmer day =)

Its a nice little square with a lot of dedications to veterans and other wars. I also believe there's a time capsule underneath one of the rocks.

Joel Roberts Poinsett Statue

Reviewed By RoadWarrior2019

Impossible to miss if you're strolling down main street, the statue offers both a history lesson (see plaque at the foot of the statue) as well as a great photo opportunity.

Denmark Vesey Monument

Reviewed By A9518GEmarys

Statue is placed in a beautiful setting. Read about Denmark, then visit the statue. Controversial figure in Charleston's history, but need to learn about him....not taught in American history books in my day.
