Craving fresh air, waterfront views, and cold drinks? Enter: Mount Pleasant, the largest coastal town in SC that you shore need to visit.

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.
  • Plan the perfect picnic under the palms at Pitt Street Bridge and check out waterfront activities like fishing.
  • Elevate your getaway by attending staple coastal events like the Blessing of the Fleet & Seafood Festival in April or the Sweetgrass Festival in July.
  • No visit to the coast is complete without trying the local seafood. Take a bite out of the Lowcountry and try the bustling culinary and craft beer scene.
