South Carolina Family Vacations – History, Charm and Beaches

Discover all there is to see and do in South Carolina! Dip you feet in the ocean and take advantage of Coastal South Carolina along its pristine beaches. From the tip of North Myrtle Beach to the relaxed atmosphere of Hilton Head Island, you’ll find the perfect beach to explore. 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. Marvel at turtles, sharks and jellyfish at the South Carolina Aquarium. Relax on a sunset cruise.

Make your way over to historic Georgetown, rumored to be the best kept secret in South Carolina. Discover specialty gift stores along Harborwalk, and grab a bite to eat at a local restaurant. Get spooked on a historic ghost tour or set your own pace and go on a walking tour of the city.

South Carolina is a shopper’s paradise offering antique stores, malls and factory outlets throughout the state. At the end of a long day, you’ll find historic accommodations, bed & breakfasts, vacation rentals, beach homes and hotels. Let GuestQuest plan your South Carolina Coastal Beach Vacation with your family today.
