South Carolina Travel Guide - Top Things To Do

 

 


• Soak up a little luxury while relaxing at a Myrtle Beach or Charleston beach resort, such as the Wild Dunes Resort (website: www.wilddunes.com) on the Isle of Palms, or the golf resort of Kiawah Island (website: www.kiawahresort.com).

• Take a horse and carriage ride through the Downtown Historic District of Charleston (website: www.charlestoncvb.com), and enjoy the charm of this gracious southern town.

• Walk through a pre-revolutionary dungeon on the Charleston Ghost and Dungeon Walking Tour (website: www.charlestondungeon.com) as you explore the haunted old Historic District.

• Spend the day at the Riverbanks Zoo and Garden (website: www.riverbanks.org) in Columbia. Watch elephant training demonstrations, penguin feedings or bird flight demonstrations. The zoo has won many awards, including one for its toucan-breeding programme.

• Entertain the children at Myrtle Beach attractions (website: www.lovingmyrtlebeach.com/attractions) such as the Myrtle Beach National Wax Museum; Myrtle Beach Pavilion Amusement Park; NASCAR Speedpark; and Ripley's Aquarium.

• Stay in one of South Carolina's historic inns or bed & breakfasts (website: www.southcarolinabedandbreakfast.com), from old plantations to stately Victorian mansions, often nestled in gardens ablaze with flowering dogwoods and azaleas.

• Get wet on any one of the fun water rides at Myrtle Waves Water Park (website: www.lovingmyrtlebeach.com/attractions) and Wild Water and Wheels (website: www.wild-water.com) in Surfside Beach. The Family Kingdom Amusement Park (website: www.family-kingdom.com) boasts Swamp Fox, a legendary wooden roller coaster.

• Rent an old beach house on Pawley's Island (website: www.townofpawleysisland.com), once a refuge for colonial rice planters' families wishing to avoid malaria. Buy an original Pawley's Island rope hammock that is handmade in this area.

• Tee off on one of over 335 golf courses statewide. The Low Country offers more than 100 championship courses, several of which are frequented by renowned master players - the Kiawah Island Resort is ranked as one of the top courses in the USA.

• Visit Hilton Head (website: www.hiltonheadisland.org), considered a golfing and tennis paradise with its miles of dazzling white sand beaches, bike trails, beaches, tennis courts and some of the nation's premier golf courses.
