If you like a serving of history along with your outdoor adventure, then Bull Island is your dream destination. Located in Awendaw, SC, just a few minutes outside of Charleston, Bull Island Beach will draw you in to its dramatic stories and sunny shores. Once a haven for pirates, then later the site for the Martellow Tower which didn't survive the Civil War, this area was eventually developed into part of the Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge in 1932. That unbreakable bond between history and nature is very much alive, and you can see it everywhere from the picturesque woodland trails all the way to the beach's inviting shores.

Beach music is a sub-genre of rock and roll that influenced the sound of early 60s music, and its origins were right here along the South Carolina coast. That's why the Charleston Beach Music and Shag Festival brings back so many good-time memories. Enjoy dance lessons, top live bands that include such well-known acts as the Fantastic Shakers and Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs. Daytime events are scheduled at the Citadel Alumni House and continue into the night with music and dancing at J.B. Pivot's. The event is scheduled yearly in the latter part of August or early September.

When visiting the Citadel Archives and Museum, you'll marvel at this impressive collection of military history that will fascinate everyone from the most detailed history fan to the casual visitor. The rich history of the Military College of South Carolina and Corps of Cadets is presented through this extensive collection of artifacts, memorabilia, documents, and attractions. The items that tell this dramatic story date all the way back to 1842.

If the two of you enjoy getting dressed up for an evening out but don't really know where to go after you're done with dinner, choose to make it a classic evening by taking in one of the many performances presented by the Charleston Symphony Orchestra. This highly talented group of musicians works hard year round to bring their best musical interpretations to life. Their versatility ranges from excellent performances of masterworks, pops, chamber orchestra pieces and much more. So get your tickets and get set for an evening filled with music that will be the perfect soundtrack for your romantic time together.
