There's something about Edisto Beach that makes time slow down in all the right ways.

Maybe it's how the island feels like a secret that only locals know, even though you're welcome here too. Or the serene coastline where you can actually hear yourself think between the sound of the surf.

The fishing is legendary, the sunsets are daily therapy, and the pace of life runs on island time, which is exactly as slow as it should be!

Come discover why Edisto Beach isn't just a destination, it's a reset button for the soul.

History lives deep in the roots of the SC Lowcountry and it’s more than a story. It’s a legacy still unfolding.

Walk the grounds of Penn Center, where generations gathered to learn, lead, and lift up a community. Step into Historic Mitchelville, where freedom took root on Hilton Head Island. Explore the Morris Center for Lowcountry Heritage in Ridgeland, where exhibits celebrate the voices and traditions that shaped this region.

From the Hampton County Museum at the Old Jail to the Colleton Museum & Farmers Market and the Harriet Tubman Bridge that honors her daring raids across the Combahee—every stop invites you to see the Lowcountry through a new lens.

There’s history in the breeze here. And the best way to understand it is to come stand where it happened.

Pack light, wander slow, and let the Lowcountry lead the way!

When the summer sun settles in heavy, there’s one place in Walterboro where curiosity is always welcome and the AC feels just right.

The Colleton Museum isn’t loud or flashy. But it is full of moments that spark wonder in kids and grownups alike. Fossils, feathers, and photos that nudge out questions like, “What is that?” and “Did you know…?”

It’s where the past becomes a puzzle to solve together and where learning sneaks in between laughs and wide-eyed discovery.

It’s also just a few steps from the farmer’s market pavilion. So you can stroll, snack, and cool off with something meaningful.

There’s a quiet spot along the May River where the past still has a voice.

The Garvin-Garvey House tells a story that’s easy to overlook but impossible to forget. Its one of resilience, of freedom, of a man who built his own home during Reconstruction on the very river where he once worked enslaved.

You won’t find velvet ropes or polished panels here. Just weathered wood, the breeze off the water, and the kind of story that stays with you long after the visit ends.

This isn’t about looking back, it’s about seeing more clearly.

There’s more to the South Carolina Lowcountry than the breeze off the water and sandy toes. Just beyond the marshes and beaches are stories waiting in quiet towns, serene lakes, and places where time and tradition hold steady.

Stay a little longer on the coast, but carve out a day to head inland. Wander a Main Street antique shop, picnic under pines by a blackwater river, or step into a museum that proves small places can hold big stories.

It’s not about leaving the coast behind. It’s about seeing the bigger picture and finding the heart of the Lowcountry in places you didn’t expect.

Botany Bay isn’t your typical family outing and that’s what makes it unforgettable.

Where else can kids spot a fox squirrel scampering across your path while grandparents point out tabby ruins and ancient live oaks like old friends? There’s a story waiting around every bend, and everyone in the family brings something different to the conversation.

Here, history feels alive. Nature feels bigger. And walking the same trail together means something different for each generation, but it’s shared just the same.

There’s something about the Beaufort Water Festival that brings everyone out. Uncles with folding chairs, cousins chasing bubbles, and grandparents clapping to beach music.

It’s the kind of summer gathering that feels more like a reunion. Families showing up year after year to laugh, to cheer, to dance along the river like nobody’s watching.

And when the littlest ones point to the sky during the air show or fall asleep to the rhythm of the band, you realize, you’re making memories.

This year’s festival runs July 11–20! Will we see your crew by the river?
