Charleston SC - Suggest I in a

Visit the CSS Hunley conservation lab.When I was there about two years ago, it was only open to the public on Saturdays, so some online research is a good idea.

X2 on Patriots Point.

Jim, "Mo' coffee!"

Moved from General RV'ing Issues forum.

If you have the time, give the SeeWee Restaurant on Rt 17 near Mt Pleasant a try for a truly unique experience. The food is excellent, and the "ambiance" is an old country store that's been converted to a restaurant. The old worn, wide pine floors, and shelves still stocked with goods from the old days are well worth the visit. Besides, what other restaurant serves bottles of cold Nehi Grape Soda?! :B

Eat at Bowen's Island (Off the road to Folly beach. Small dirt road to right...) Customs House downtown

the Angel Oak and The Charleston Tea Plantation are well worth seeing .... it is nothing short of amazing to see a tree the size of the Angel Oak and think about how many storms it has withstood .... the Charleston Tea Plantation is the only tea plantation in the US .... it is the home of Bigelow Tea, the tour is really interesting

Speaking of Ashley River Road, is there at least 13' clearance? Tnx.

cross the Cooper River to the north and visit Red's Ice House on Shem Creek. Ask anyone in Mt Pleasant where it is and they can tell you. Outstanding food and a great place to spend a couple of hours watching the pelicans on the creek, sitting in the sun and having a bucket of bottles. They make their own sliced potato chips. Hot sauce!! yep!

Bike Ride on Isle of Palms Beach
Hike on Francis Marion National Forest - Awendaw Passage from Buck Hall to Swamp Fox, Sewee Visitor Center - National Forest and Cape Romain WIldlife Refuge - see the Red Wolves. Visit Bull Island part of the refuge

You may be a few days early for the peak flowing, but visit the Azalea gardens at the plantations. There are about 3 near Charleston.

Also might want to try The Tattoed Moose. Was on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Duck Fat fries and many other very creative (and not at all expensive) sandwiches and meals. Locals love it as well as tourists.
