South Carolina Family Vacations – History, Charm and Beaches

North Myrtle Beach are perfect for beachcombing, water sports, boating and fishing. Stroll along the boardwalk for shopping and stop at area restaurants to enjoy some fresh seafood. Tee off at championship golf courses or maybe partake in a friendly game of putt-putt with the family. Indulge in a day of shopping at the malls and end the day with dinner and a show.
Amazing biodiversity abounds in Congaree National Park, the largest intact bottomland hardwood forest remaining in southeast United States. Huntington Beach State Park is a beautiful example of South Carolina’s upper coastal environment, featuring oceanfront, saltmarsh, dunes, maritime forest habitats and freshwater pond that support a wide array of wildlife. And a trip to Daufuskie Island offers a glimpse of what other sea islands were like before bridges and causeways opened them to development. Most native residents of the island are descendants of freed slaves, who have made their living oystering and fishing for decades.
Charleston is home of the French quarter and of pre-civil war buildings to explore. It boasts an acclaimed restaurant scene, drawing in hard core food lovers. In this town, top golf courses, tennis courts, monumental battleships, beaches and beautifully preserved architecture barely scratch the surface in Charleston. At Cypress Gardens, stroll four miles of beautiful garden trails, enjoy the greenhouse with butterflies and flowers, paddle through cypress swamp, or discover native and exotic reptile exhibits. If you’re ready for adventures of historic proportions, sit back on a horse-drawn carriage tour of the ‘Holy City’ and visit historic buildings and structures dating back to the late 18th century. Stand on the site of the first shot in Civil War. Climb aboard a WWII aircraft carrier, or see what life was like serving on a submarine in the Civil War.
