Mount Pleasant WHERE CONTEMPORARY STYLE MEETS MARITIME HISTORY Picturesque Mount Pleasant dots its roads with stylish shops, eateries and more, all while never forgetting to celebrate its maritime setting. In Mount Pleasant, history and the Charleston Harbor frequently interplay. Take for instance Memorial Waterfront Park . Tucked under the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge , this recently- expanded park offers panoramic coastal views and epic sunsets, as well as a fishing pier, playground, splash pad and lush greenspace. The Pitt Street Bridge , once the sole means of accessing the beach at Sullivan’s Island, is now a popular waterfront passage for exercise, leisurely strolls, and fishing. Earn your sea legs at Shem Creek by kayaking and paddleboarding through tidal creeks, or stroll 2,000 feet of boardwalks over the marsh. Walk in the footsteps of heroes with a tour of the USS Yorktown , the legendary World War Two-era aircraft carrier that has been transformed into a museum and is home to the newly re-imagined Medal of Honor Museum . Just up Highway 17 you’ll find Towne Centre , an impressive collection of retailers and cuisine, as well as Boone Hall Plantation , home of the iconic Avenue of the Oaks and still today a working farm. With a host of restaurants, retail and riverfront views, in so many ways, Mount Pleasant lives up to its name.
Mount Pleasant, the largest coastal town in South Carolina, nestled on the Charleston Harbor, welcomes y’all with salt air and sweetgrass! Experience the magic of Mount Pleasant any time of the year. ExperienceMountPleasant.com
