Escape to this slice of paradise ( a ~6 hour road trip or ~1 hour flight)nestled on the Charleston Harbor and surrounded by palm trees and the refreshing smell of salt air.

Need some travel inspo? Here are our four favorite things to see + do:

  • Stroll along the boardwalks or paddle through the tidal, dolphin-laden creeks of Shem Creek.
