Here are some unique activities to do in Charleston, SC and surrounding areas. These activities range from horseback riding on the beach to full moon kayak trips; ghosts to dolphins and so much in between. Start your planning!

1. Paddleboard under a full moon through the tranquil marshes near Bohicket Marina. This nighttime adventure offers a magical way to explore Charleston’s waterways. Check out Charleston SUP Safaris for Full Moon Tours or Charleston Outdoor Adventures for Full Moon Kayak Tours.

2. Take an eco-tour to witness local bottlenose dolphins strand feeding – a unique hunting behavior only observed in this part of the world. Try Flipper Finders or Charleston Outdoor Adventures.

3. Visit the Old Charleston City Jail on a haunted tour to learn about the ghosts that allegedly still haunt the historic building. The team at Bulldog Tours will not let you down.

4. Go horseback riding on the beach at Seabrook Island, the only place that allows this activity in Charleston. Seabrook Island Equestrian has you covered.

5. Attend an oyster roast during oyster season (November to February) to experience a beloved local tradition.

6. Explore the Waring Historical Library (175 Ashley Ave, Charleston, SC 29403) to see rare medical instruments, books, and artifacts dedicated to the history of health sciences.

7. Make your own custom hat at one of Charleston’s hat shops. Our recommendation is Southern Ruetz Hat Bar and Maker Mall (Indoor artisan mall).

8. Take a haunted pub crawl that combines spooky tales with visits to local bars. Ghost City Tours will certainly whet your appetite.

9. Visit Middleton Place (4300 Ashley River Rd, Charleston, SC 29414), a 300-year-old former rice plantation with exquisitely preserved gardens and educational tours about the slave trade.

10. Spend a day on Sullivan’s Island, where you can explore the area’s connection to Edgar Allan Poe.

These activities offer unique ways to experience Charleston’s history, culture, and natural beauty.
