Girlfriend and I looking to get away for a week in the summer. Neither of us have ever been. Are the beaches/resorts worth a damn around charleston? she wants the ocean while I want the history and charm of charleston. Can we get both?

Any other advice of Charleston would be very much appreciated. Places to stay, dine, shop, etc...

TIA

Folley beach. Isle of Palms is apparently the upscale beach area but I haven't been there

Isle of Palms/Sullivan's Island is a short drive away.

Drink and Shop on King Street and at the market.

It's an awesome place.

If you don't stop at the tattoed moose, you did it wrong

My family has gone to Kiawah for going on 15 years now and bought a place there about 10 years ago. We spend our summers there! Love it there!

Make sure to keep alcohol in solo cups. Apparently there was a alcohol driven riot a couple years ago and they passed an alcohol ban on the beach. Just be smart and you should be alright. I had no problem drinking Yeungling on the beach.

Great town to visit ... Very much a sense of southern history there. Low country food is good too.
