Charleston County Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Downtown Charleston in South Carolina

This is our first stop before heading to Myrtle Beach. Charleston is not only one of the oldest cities in America, but it’s also an exceptionally beautiful city. Charleston Historic District is a beautiful and colorful area of town to explore, it’s not the only reason to visit this charming southern town. The town is filled with southern charm, delicious food, great shops, stunning coastal beaches, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy some relaxing time. If you love arts then you would love Charleston more. Go check this place!

A Pandemonium of Pre-Beach Thoughts 🏖️

The beach trip countdown is on, and my suitcase sits in untouched splendor. My grand plans of a summer-ready body seem to have been lost at sea. In the face of imminent vacation, I'm left with the scramble of downloading series, making last-minute arrangements, and scrambling to pamper myself. My patronus, were it to exist, would be a relaxed panda, munching bamboo with a ""do not disturb"" aura. So, don't anticipate picture-perfect bikini shots, but embrace the chaotic adventure that vacation preparation truly is.

Yummy 😋
