8 Hours in Charleston South Carolina – New Video by Adventures of Megan and Mike

We only had 8 hours to spend in Charleston, South Carolina and ended up having one awesomely epic day to say the least!

We started our day having brunch at Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit. The biscuits and cold brew we had were excellent and the perfect fuel for our adventure throughout the city.

Next, we headed to the historic Rainbow Row as well as one of the many beautiful alley ways – Longitude Lane. These two sites are definitely a must see when visiting Charleston and are a short distance away from each other! Next, we visited Joe Riley Waterfront Park – an 8 acre park along approximately half a mile of the Cooper River. This park is also home to the famous Pineapple Fountain which you can swim in!

Next, we headed just south of Charleston to the well known Angel Oak tree. It is reportedly the largest living structure east of the Mississippi at an estimated 1,500 years old. It is certainly something you’ll want to see if you’re in the area! Finally, we finished our day with an epic sunset at Folly Beach! We arrived at the beach around 6 PM and parked at the closet public parking area to the Morris Island Lighthouse – built in 1767 but destroyed during the Civil War.

In 1876 a new tower was built which currently stands at 161 feet tall with a whopping 201 steps leading to the top! Folly Beach is around 6 miles long and also contains sand dunes which are protected and fragile.

Dogs are not allowed on the beach from May 1st – September 30th from 10am to 6pm.
