If you're in the mood to jazz it up tonight, then head to one of Charleston's best jazz bars, the Charleston Grill. Technically, the venue is a restaurant, but the elegance and nightlife appeal of the place makes sense when you add the highly appealing live jazz, which is presented every night of the week. Most evenings, enjoy the live sounds of acclaimed local jazz maestros, the Quentin Baxter Ensemble, but on Sundays, the Bob Williams Duo, a local favorite, takes stage. You can enjoy the music while you relax in the lavish dining room or enjoy a cocktail in the classy bar area.

Enjoying a day at the beach means you'll more than likely be doing that with a large number of other beach-goers. If you want to find a quiet break from all that hustle and bustle but still enjoy a beautiful shoreline, make Edisto Beach your destination of choice. Located about 30 miles outside of Charleston, the beach is strikingly clean and inviting, as amenities like restrooms, family campsites and parking make finding your place on the sand stress-free. Sure, you won't be the only one enjoying Edisto Beach, but it will feel like this magnificent stretch of coastland is all yours when you comfortably stretch out on your beachtowel.

The Charleston Museum has always prided itself in bringing aspects of our history together and presenting them in a truly compelling fashion. Among their many exhibits and attractions, you'll find how the role of textiles played a vital part in the Civil War in a popular exhibit called the Threads of War. Also, a similarly themed exhibit focuses on how Charleston survived being under siege during that particular war and how it pressed on to become the vital city that it is today. More interactive adventures like Kids Story and much more continue the museum's rich tradition of reaching into the lives of children who will one day pass the stories and experiences they've learned here along to their own kids.
