A GUIDE TO CHARLESTON

Where to Eat. Where to Play. Where to Explore.

Where to Eat

132 Spring Coffee & Kitchen Bar is a short walk (0.2 miles) from Parson Inn. This modern and cozy café is a great place to get a long day of adventuring started. They cater to all pallets and serve everything from croissants to tacos to sandwiches to tasty coffees.


DAPS is a unique and charming breakfast joint in the neighborhood. You can get fruity pebble pancakes or organic hot coffee here. The environment is comfy, and chic, and we can’t get enough of it. 


Brown’s Court Bakery is the best place for some carbs and coffee. If you are craving a savory bagel, a sweet apple pie danish, or a warm egg and cheese biscuit make sure you take a quick stroll to Brown’s Court.

Where to Play

The SC Aquarium is the perfect place to visit for rainy days and for families. The aquarium hosts the largest tank in the southeast and has a sea turtle hospital. The aquarium includes activities for little ones and hourly speakers who will show off anything from reptiles to various sea shells.

Charleston Outdoor Adventures provides kayaking tours, paddle boarding tours, and nature tours. It is the best place to be to spot bottlenose dolphins, sea turtles, and birds of all backgrounds

Golfing has a special place here in Charleston. Between Kiawah Island (PGA tour hot spot) and the local spots in Mount Pleasant and James Island, it will be difficult to pick the perfect place for a sunny round of golf. 



Where to Explore

Fort Sumter is for the historical bunch. It can only be reached by boat, so a quick harbor tour is included. The civil war started right here, so there is no better place to learn and explore the nation's history.


Ghost Tours are one of the most popular attractions in Charleston for a reason. The Holy City is considered one of the most haunted cities in the country. Between the Holy City Jail and the graveyards at St. Philips Church, someone is bound to capture a spirit on camera.


Boone Hall Plantation boasts history straight from Charleston's past. The trees loom over guests as they walk in the footsteps of the original southerners. There are several other plantations in the area. Our favorites include Magnolia Plantation, Middleton Plantation and McLeod Planation.
