Charleston Beach Vacations

Pastel streets and beaches twenty minutes away.

One of America's great food and history cities, with Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island and Folly Beach on its doorstep.

Overview

Why Charleston.

Charleston is the rare place where a beach week and a city break fit in one trip. Stay downtown for the restaurants, the pastel houses on Rainbow Row and carriage rides, then drive twenty minutes to Sullivan's Island or Isle of Palms for wide, quiet sand. Folly Beach adds a surf town vibe. Spring and fall are perfect; summer is hot and humid.
