Things to Do:

Isle of Palms Beach
The reason we’re all here! The island has miles and miles of gorgeous beaches. Each cross street or section of the beach is marked with a “Station” number. Pick your station and set up camp. I recommend getting out there early if you need to find parking.

Fort Sumter and Fort Moultrie National Historical Park
For all the history buffs out there, it’s definitely worth it to book a tour of Fort Sumter and/or Fort Moultrie!

Palm Boulevard
A walk, bike ride, or drive along Palm Blvd is so charming if you’d enjoy checking out the little (and not so little) beach cottages.

Ocean Boulevard
This is the main drag for ice cream, live music, food / happy hour. You name it, you’ll find it here!

The Windjammer
A must for live music!!! A hallmark of Isle of Palms. You can catch smaller shows on the indoor stage, and larger acts on an outdoor stage with a view of the ocean. One of my favorite venues in the area.

Beach House Spa
A spot that I almost don’t want to give away. Who doesn’t want a massage followed by a calming walk on the beach?! Priced well, book with Brown!
