Other outdoor adventures include early-morning bird walks each
Wednesday and Saturday in July and August at the Caw Caw
Interpretive Center, fifteen minutes south of downtown Charleston
on U.S. Highway 17 near Ravenel. The Center is a 654-acre natural
and cultural resource created from historic rice fields, and whose
pristine habitat features excellent vistas for viewing a wide
variety of captivating species. For information on the walks or
the Caw Caw Center contact

Downtown Charleston:
Charleston Fine Arts Dealers' Association presents its second annual
Pallete and Palate Stroll. More than a dozen exclusive
galleries and their renowned artists will combine talents with the
prestigious chefs of six of the historic city's finest restaurants,
featuring exquisite delights for the eyes and the taste buds on this
magical evening stroll. For reservations contact
www.cfada.com.
North Charleston: If
strolling is too tame, try a West African dance class at the North
Charleston Cultural & Civic Center Complex.
Presented by Charleston's award-winning Adande Dance/Drum Company,
classes offer instruction in a wide range of rhythmic West African
dances that have been handed down for generations. For information
contact 843-745-1087.
James Island: Music
lovers will also enjoy the outdoor air and tantalizing tunes of
Charleston Summer Concert Series' presentation of "Reggae Nights" at
James Island County Park. The
nationally-acclaimed Jah Works band from Baltimore, Maryland, rocks
the night away with its unusual blend of roots-reggae and dance hall
beats. A comfortably informal evening for the entire family can be
enjoyed on blankets or lawn chairs, with food and beverages
available. Other sounds adding gusto to the city's warm, breezy
nights echo the fourth Saturday of each month with the Free Summer
Concert Series at Charleston Waterfront Park, overlooking the
historic harbor.
For
pure fun in the sun, nothing beats a day at the beach in Charleston,
especially considering that three great public barrier island
beaches are only minutes from
downtown
Charleston. The
Isle
of Palms is only twenty minutes from the city, and features a
beautiful six-mile stretch of surf and sand as well as ample public
parking, shopping areas and several waterfront restaurants.
Sullivan's Island, only fifteen minutes from downtown, is a more
relaxed three-mile beauty of a beach, where wind surfers and kite
boarders share the stage with leaping dolphins and diving pelicans.
Folly
Beach, fifteen minutes drive from the city, has a causal,
Bohemian atmosphere that has earned it the reputation as "the edge
of America". This three-mile beachfront includes a magnificent
public fishing pier and county park area at the scenic southern tip
of the pristine ocean dunes.
