Sea Kayaking in Charleston, South Carolina: Shem Creek to Castle Pickney – New Video from Carolina Campervan
In this video, we’ll be sea kayaking from Shem Creek located in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina to Castle Pickney, which is a Civil War Fort located in the Charleston Harbor on Shuttes Folly Island.
Shem Creek is a wonderful place to put in a kayak or paddleboard and go explore the salt marsh and shrimp boats.
Built in 1810, Castle Pickney was once used briefly by the Confederate military as a jail as well as an artillery outpost in the Civil War. Join me as we explore Shem Creek and Castle Pickney!
