CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA

HISTORY loves COMPANY

If these brick walls and cobblestones and live oaks could talk. In Charleston, anywhere you wander has countless stories to share, with layers of history that could keep you in one small spot for hours.

Stroll the oleander-lined High Battery, and you’ll survey a long-charted Charleston Harbor that carries within its waves centuries of global comings and goings. Look toward the peninsula and you’re greeted with architectural gems that have ushered in every new decade. Round any corner of the shop-lined King Street and you’ll peer into ornate storefront windows that have showcased every new trend and taste that is part of American culture. Tuck into a local-sourced restaurant and you’ll get a hint of culinary traditions from Charleston harvests refined through time.

There’s never been a better time to dive deep into Charleston, a place that holds in its vast and varied past so much of the American experience—and in its present a deeply meaningful, ever enjoyable new era of discovery.

We’re honored to have been named No. 1 City in the U.S. by the readers of Travel + Leisure (2013 – 2022), No. 1 South’s Best City in the Southern Living South’s Best Awards (2017 – 2020, 2022), and Condé Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice No. 1 Small U.S. City (2011 – 2020, 2022).

THEN AND NOW, HISTORY HAPPENS HERE.

From the rst indigenous people who found sustenance in oysters straight through to the locals and visitors alike who delight in the bustling, global port city of today, Charleston’s centuries-old story continues to evolve with each new chapter.

And each chapter finds fascinating traces of a distinct contribution to Charleston culture, all brought to vivid life in museums, historic sites and simply by walking the city.

The welcoming pineapple atop the fountain at Waterfront Park has served as a sign of hospitality, harking back to Barbados. The region’s enduring devotion to rice, whose cultivation in the Lowcountry links back to Africa, has found its way to elaborately carved beds and onto local menus.

Today, Charleston is primed to continue to shape our country’s history as we forge paths to deepen community. New o erings like the International African American Museum are set to shine light on the stories yet to be fully told, folding in new ways of bringing together all who call themselves Charleston locals and Charleston friends. Longstanding preservation organizations are equally committed to this jewel by the sea.

SAVOR THE CENTURIES AND TASTE TODAY.

roughout the city, there’s a lid for every pot, and a dish for every palate.

It’s no wonder foodies around the world follow the culinary scene in Charleston. Today, it boasts both longstanding establishments celebrating beloved traditions as well as dynamic newcomers that are tantalizing testament to the many influences that converge in this historically global city.

It may come as no surprise that Charleston restaurants continue to land spots on national lists, and to gain recognition through prestigious nods like the James Beard Awards.

Take a staple like our fresh, local shrimp. In Charleston, you can savor it fried or tossed into a Lowcountry boil at a place devoted to local cuisine, or brightened with curry at an Asian-Fusion spot, or finessed in a taco at a taqueria. Be sure to book early and come hungry.

AN ARTFUL IMMERSION. A STIRRING SENSE OF PLACE.

e arts have never been more vibrant, and vital, than in Charleston today.

Grand concert halls, chic galleries, sleek theaters and pulsing music venues come together in a cultural landscape that never ceases to inspire and uplift.

In Charleston, there is always something going on. Charleston Symphony Masterworks and pop concerts. Annual arts festivals like Spoleto Festival USA and Piccolo Spoleto. Choral groups and chamber music groups regularly fill sacred halls and receiving rooms. Opera, which debuted in America in this very city, enjoys a multitude of both traditional and inventive productions.

Have an eye for visual art? Acclaimed art museums and galleries roll out an enthralling exhibitions that pay tribute to established greats and emerging visionaries. Theater and dance companies mount award-winning productions and edgy, new work, too.

Bookish? Independent bookstores, literary organizations and acclaimed festivals host regular events weekly, attracting best-selling authors and tackling probing notions.

As they have for centuries, our artists often celebrate Charleston, one brush stroke or high note or epic leap at a time.

VENTURE OUT. NATURAL SPLENDOR AWAITS.

Whether hiking, pedaling, climbing or paddling, outdoor enthusiasts will take a shine to Charleston.

With Charleston’s beckoning subtropical climate, the transition from stately indoors to the great outdoors has always been strikingly smooth.

There’s a reason why historic homes are graced with numerous doors giving way to breezy piazzas and majestic courtyards.

Hints of island life transport, giving the city a far-flung feel ideal for a vacation idyll. Swaying Palmetto trees punctuate the landscape.

And a glistening glimpse or sweeping vista of the Intracoastal Waterway is never far from reach. You can see Charleston Harbor in maritime action on a chartered sail or boat tour. Or wend in a kayak through an estuary splashing and soaring with wildlife. Or follow a verdant, magical path through an historic estate, garden or state park to a stirring stretch of marshland.

And let’s not forget those famous beaches. A longcherished calling card, its barrier islands have made Charleston a sought-after resort destination for generations of vacationers, where travelers journey time and again to meet the sea.

A SENSE OF STYLE. A BOUNDLESS BOUNTY.

A memento to good taste.

Charleston’s love of the visual extends far beyond its ornate facades and glorious gardens. A bounty of inspired shops and boutiques brim with antiques, jewelry, apparel and collectibles, which come together to ensure that any visitor can make a style statement, and take one home, too.

Head to the Charleston City Market, one of America’s oldest public markets, and you’ll find local treasures like iconic Gullah sweetgrass baskets and other artisanal, one-of-a-kind items.

Or amble down King Street, one of the city’s main commercial promenades. While you admire the facades and hanging baskets that change with each season, you’ll join a steady stream of shoppers in search of that perfect memento to wear, display or savor. Fan out to other parts of the peninsula and beyond, and you’ll land on local galleries and more that o er items that are both collectibles and conversation pieces.

Once you peer into a visually stunning Charleston storefront, you’re bound to depart a stylish, satisfied shopper.

IT’S A FEEL-GOOD FAMILY AFFAIR.

Ask anyone with a child in their midst: ere’s nothing quite like landing on those family-friendly pursuits that are good fun – and enriching, too. With plentiful o erings suitable for the entire family, Charleston is ready to help you reach a shared state of familial bliss.

The South Carolina Aquarium o ers a one-stop shop for adult marine biology enthusiasts as well as young children in search of big fish. Or how about taking a tour boat out to Fort Sumter? It’s equally entertaining for history bu s and for those keen to spot a dolphin in Charleston Harbor. The Charleston Museum yields everything from towering dinosaur bones to in-depth textile exhibitions of attire from days gone by. Want to thrill and chill your brood? Ghost tours brim with local lore.

Most every step your family takes is a teachable moment. Fascinating facts and stories across the ages are layered into almost every square foot of the city, o ering unlimited fodder for learning and discovery.

BERKELEY COUNTY

Tucked inland and brimming with treasures, Berkeley County is the Lowcountry at its most lush.

Picturesque interludes and historical gems brim with regional allure in Berkeley County. Channel the American Revolution at Francis Marion National Forest, where the war hero Francis Marion, who was known as the Swamp Fox, outwitted the British in its elusive terrain of pines, marsh and swamp. In Monck’s Corner, embark on a soulful sojourn at Mepkin Abbey or a magical foray through Cypress Gardens. In Goose Creek, tee up some golf balls framed by a singularly Southern setting – or hit the trails and take in the wonder along Wannamaker Red Loop.

Gather and get outdoors in Berkeley County. Paddle, swim, and sail through history—or just enjoy some good old-fashioned recreation. However you choose to play, unparalleled beauty and adventure await explorers of all ages.

CHARLESTON COUNTY

Cozied up to a coastal strip of South Carolina, it’s the place where land and sea play together beautifully. With the sparkling city of Charleston at its beating heart, this beach-hugging stretch of the state o ers a rare convergence of city chic and natural splendor. Of course there’s the seaside sweep of subtropical blessings of the barrier islands. Then, the are also all those magnificent marshes and tidal creeks, with many wending through state parks. Rather take in the vistas from a cosmopolitan perch? Whether strolling the peninsula, situated at a Mt. Pleasant eatery or popping into the latest North Charleston hot spot, this county comes together in the best of all worlds.

History enthusiasts will want to take in St. George’s Bell Tower, in close proximity to Fort Dorchester, an oyster shell tabby fort from the colonial era.

WHAT IS GULLAH CULTURE?

It is a living, breathing culture emanating from the once-enslaved Charleston people, who infused their new world with treasured African ways. And it is part of a broader sea island tradition now known as Gullah-Geechee.

It is traced along the intricately woven sweetgrass baskets made from flora of the Lowcountry. It is heard in the resonant hymns that enfold West African traditions and centuries-old Christian hymns--and in the distinct dialect marked by faraway rhythms and cadences. It is seen in vibrant visual art that reflects both the Lowcountry and a distant continent. It is tasted in the evocative foodways that traversed a mighty ocean with their flavors and methods in tact.

Gullah culture is far more than an essential part of the Charleston experience. It is an essential part of the American experience. It has informed roots and blues music, as well as rock and roll. It has powered dances like the Charleston, a craze that started on Broadway and continued around the world. It has powered art and food, and shaped a people. A visit to Charleston provides a rare chance for an immersion in far-reaching thread of our nation’s story.

MUSEUMS

The mission of the International African American Museum, opening 2023, is to honor the untold stories of the African American journey at one of our country’s most sacred sites. Your support enables us to act as a place of exploration and inspiration for visitors both young and old, who will explore African American history and culture through our innovative exhibits, stunning African Ancestors Memorial Garden, and through genealogical research at our Center for Family History.

THE SWEET SPOT

Not surprisingly, the sport of golf also has a rich and storied history in Charleston that dates back to the Colonial period.

Charleston has long been par for the course.

With more than 20 challenging golf courses throughout Charleston, it’s easy to lay claim to being a golf town.

But that number is just the beginning of Charleston’s golf story. Since the 1700s, the game has been a part of the local landscape, with a downtown course no less.

There is proof in this putting: Records show that in 1743, a considerable 432 golf balls and 96 clubs were on a shipment from the Scottish port of Leith to Charleston. Fast forward to 1786, and the South Carolina Golf Club is established in what it now downtown Charleston. It was played on Harleston Green, in what is now located between Calhoun and Beaufain streets.

In modern times, Charleston’s claim to golfing prominence came in 1991, when the Ryder Cup was played on The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort. Since then, Charleston has continued to attract prestigious and international tournaments. These include the 2012 PGA Championship, the 2013 US Women’s Amateur, the 2019 Women’s Open, which was held at the Country Club of Charleston, and the 2021 PGA Championship at The Ocean Course.

So those ready to play golf against a Lowcountry backdrop have ample options. If tennis is more your game, there are courts aplenty in this tennis-friendly town. Facilities can be found at Wild Dunes Resort, Kiawah Island Golf Resort, Seabrook Island and LTP Daniel Island Tennis Center, home to the 10-day Credit One Charleston Open tournament.

TOUR LIKE A LOCAL. THEY’LL THANK YOU.

e almighty word “etiquette” is high on any Charlestonian’s list. Here are a few tips to ensure you’re in sync.

1. Share your enthusiasm, not your car stereo. Instead check out a live music venue like Charleston Gaillard Center or Charleston Music Hall.

2. Pedaling around town? Steer clear of the sidewalks.

3.When on a stroll, wean from your screen. Walking and web surfing just don’t work out well on Charleston sidewalks. You might miss out, too.

4. Have selfie-awareness. When posing for that perfect, post-friendly shot, be sure not to block the road.

5. Dodge the doorsteps. While that gorgeous door might tempt a photo opp, it is someone’s home. Please mind a respectful distance.
