For three years running, Charleston has been dubbed the No. 1 tourist destination in America by
readers of Conde Nast Traveler magazine. And it doesn’t end there, Charleston ranked No. 5 on
the Best Cities in the World. Last year it topped the list at No. 1.
So what is it about Charleston that captures the heart, soul and imagination of visitors from
across the nation and around the globe? Charleston charms its visitors with its cobblestone
streets and colorful and historic row homes. The charm of the city brings people back year after
year. And then there is the food, history, architecture and the wonderful people. As if that isn’t
enough there is the weather, sand and sun.
Nearby beaches are beautiful and their options for year-round outdoor activities are endless.
Charleston area residents and visitors have three of the most beautiful beaches along the
Southeast coast, each with its own personality. Surfers prefer the waves at Folly Beach, while the
Isle of Palms is oriented more toward families and friends who rent the many large homes on the
island, some of them right on the ocean. Sullivan’s Island is the least-commercialized of the
three and strives to remain so.
