The South Carolina Aquarium is home to more than 5,000 marine creatures and also the Turtle Care Centre. The Aquarium has a special conservation program protecting local species, and its aims are education and conservation. The Aquarium also has two important exhibitions, entitled “The Shallows” and “The Zucker Family Sea Turtle Recovery,” and these give visitors a much greater awareness of the importance of marine life preservation.

Explore the waterways and estuaries of Charleston Harbour with a qualified naturalist. The 2-hour tour is for small groups of visitors so that you get the most out of the trip, which is focusing on the wildlife. You will visit Morris Island to pull in a crab basket and search for seashells, as well as learn about the myriad of different birds.

There is only one vineyard in South Carolina, so it would be a shame not to visit it! Deep Water vineyard covers 50 acres. You can enjoy a tour with a tasting of some of the winery’s reds and whites, or if you want to take things a little more leisurely, you can order an accompanying cheeseboard.
