Food Scene
While the food in Charleston is EPIC, this is a culinary hub for a little Asian flare. It is amazing. And a block away from Charleston's best yoga studio, which we also recommend, Mission Yoga.

Get the Monster cookie. Just get it. With a coffee. Best part of our lives. Okay, one of, but seriously. For a gluten-free cookie this thing is legit. Also are any of the homemade goods and do not leave without a baguette!

Closest breakfast that we recommend! Outside seating and the food are cozy and delish. Perfect for a brekkie en route to the beach. Also cool is the outdoor truck turned slide for the kids! There is a restaurant that just opened there that sells some of the best pizza in town.

Our sushi go-to. It's easy and the fish is damn good. Right around the corner. If you just arrived and need something easy without having to go all the way downtown, go get some sushi here. Or even go pick it up.

Don't let the strip mall fool you! This is the absolute perfect stop after a day romping around Palmetto Islands County Park. The pizza's are the best although I can never refuse the burrata. GET the burrata. The vintage movie theater next door (The Terrace) makes for a perfect rainy day combo!

Don't be fooled by the name! They have some legit salty food items, too, that are coming from the masterminds behind Obstinant Daughter upstairs! Grab a coffee, and breakfast sandwich and hit the beach. There are a couple of tables, but you are at Sullivan's so just head out there!

Parks & Nature
One of the most beautiful walks (or runs) you will ever take. Ever. Period. On the marsh. You can walk all of the islands in a couple of hours. Get off the pavement as much as you can and follow the little dirt paths the snake alongside the marsh. These will be some of the most incredible stunning views of your visit.

Our favorite beach. Take a right when you get out there at the stop sign. Drive down to where it gets more residential to park. The earlier you get the better for parking- we love to combine morning beach with breakfast at Beardcats! (See review.) Station 26 is the secret spot. You're welcome!

As ex-professional water skiers we couldn't NOT include this one! Want to do some waterskiing or wake boarding? Get yourself out here! Such a fun day hanging with manager Adam (a dear friend of ours) and getting some great time on the water. Combing this with an early dinner at Fat Hen or Wild Olive for fancy or Tattooed Moose for more low key. Definitely call ahead for all of the above, including the water skiing, and tell Adam we sent you!

Golf and/or Biking: If you are into golf, this is considered one of the most stunning courses in the world. It is absolutely beautiful. And if you don't golf (like us) and just want to scope out the private and exclusive island of Kiawah via 30 miles of paved trails, get out there and rent bikes! You won't regret this activity!

It is our best dive for live music. And you won't feel like a gramma/pa like you will at a lot of Charleston late night spots. Super divey, super fun. Sundays afternoons they have kids out on the deck sometimes! And hit up The Lot next door for dinner. It is one of my favorite spots in town. Local fare that changes on the regular. De-LISH.
