We came to Sullivan's Island for a day trip while vacationing in Charleston! Unfortunately, the…read moreweather was quite cold and windy so not the best for a beach day. But we still had a lot of fun walking around the island and learning about the Civil War at Fort Moultrie. There's a cute library that we spent some time at and walking around the downtown, which has lots of shops and food/drink options, was great too. 10/10 would recommend!

Times they are a changing... And, this is true even for the little island I grew up on. I have such…read morefond memories of summers on Sullivan's and school wasn't so bad either... Especially when you attend right on the beach! Makes for lovely field trips. You definitely still want to avoid trying to get on the island around the hour as there is still a swing bridge that opens to allow large sailed vessels passage. Also, the beach traffic was strong on this particular Saturday. However, the charm remains and still has the amazing beach views and the wonderful smells that reminds me of my childhood.

Really solid water park for kids. It's incredibly clean and very, very safe (the lifeguards are on…read moreyou constantly, but in a way that made me feel that my kid was super safe). If your kid is under 42", they cannot go on the larger tube slides (even with an adult), so be aware there are two slides they will not be able to use. It felt a bit expensive for the amount of things available, but we still stayed for about 5 hours and felt totally worth it on a hot summer days.

Came here today, to take the grandbaby for a swim, and lazy river. She's 1 1/2 so not a whole lot…read moreshe could do. Took her to the children's splash area with smaller slides, and small pool. Her mom couldn't ride down the small slide with her, which ok, not fully horrible but disappointing. We waiting 2 hours for a tube for the lazy river, never once got one. People hogged the tubes and floated for long period of time. The entrance fee 15.99 per adult is definitely not worth it. I would say maybe 10 tops.

Adrenaline Monkey is the best place to bring your very active kid, but also offers fun for intrepid…read moreadults. We came on Sunday when they have an adult promo access that includes a Pizza and soda. A very good deal overall The different attractions and games are very well maintained and orderly. Although, I was tired after the first 30 minutes, My 4 year old nephew had the best time of is life and kept running around and going on every slide for the full 2 hours . You do need to buy their socks and they do not accept identical socks from other similar attractions , but you get to re-use them at least when you visit again. They also do adult parties, which might be a lot of fun for groups looking for some adventure

We had my daughter's 8th birthday party here today and I was floored with how smoothly everything…read moreran. Chase was the nicest young man who got us checked in effortlessly and was so helpful when I needed to buy my daughter a T-shirt to change into. Our hostesses, Ava and Raven, were nothing short of spectacular. Our entire party was well taken care of and they were SO polite! It's not often I see teens/young adults with the work ethic I witnessed from not only them, but everyone I encountered who works there. I made a point to speak with the manager, Jamie to let her know that she was doing an incredible job with her staff. If you need a child friendly event to host I highly recommend Adrenaline Monkey. We will definitely be back!!

I treated myself to a leisurely walk around Colonial Lake in the Harleston Village the other day…read more It's so pretty, surrounded by historic homes on the Broad, Ashley, Beaufain & Rutledge Streets. The lake itself is tidal & has very well manicured gardens and beautifully paved sidewalks. It's the ideal location for running or walking. They also have well place benches to just soak up the sun or fresh air. The peace & quiet is great. I'm ashamed to say it was my first time really exploring this area of Charleston. I'll definitely return here again. Lovely
