If you want to really dive into a truly memorable experience that tells the tale of Charleston's nature and history, then take a trip to the South Carolina Aquarium. There are more than a few photo-opportunities at this seaside attraction, like the excellent, panoramic views of the historic harbor where the Aquarium makes its home. You'll marvel at the displays that tell the stories of the area's natural regions such as the Coastal Plain, Mountain Forest, Piedmont and the Atlantic Coast. Also, you'll get to view an amazing collection of reptiles, birds and other creatures that are part of several interactive exhibits that the kids will never forget.
Don't let the name fool you. Closed For Business is one of Charleston's favorite bars on the nightlife scene, not only because of it's ironic name, but because it boasts an incredible beer selection. Making a choice of what beverage you'll enjoy might be tougher than you think, as the bar features 30 draught beers, roughly 50 bottled beers, a seasonal beer menu, monthly beer menu and even beer flights! But don't worry, if beer isn't your thing, there's an equally impressive set of premium liquors and wines to choose from. A great atmosphere, a satisfying menu that features sandwiches and snacks, and a community pool table all help to ensure that Closed For Business will never find itself without a large number of customers.
