Travel Guide: Sullivan's Island

On a recent work trip down to Charleston I discovered the most amazing place. It was the most peaceful place I've visited in a long time, Sullivan's Island.  It's just a short drive from Mt. Pleasant where we stayed. Right over the bridge, and we discovered a quiet public beach. Stopped for lunch at Poe's Tavern and visited some cute surf shops.

Beach: 1851 Thee St, Sullivan's Island, SC 29482
