The Charleston, South Carolina area is a great place to live or have a vacation home. The weather is great, the beaches are fantastic, golf courses are abundant, there are many historical sites, the architecture is unbelievable, the dining is unbeatable, and the people are the friendliest in the country. It is because of these reasons that I believe Charleston SC Real Estate is truly unique. I look forward to helping you with any of your Charleston SC Real Estate needs in Charleston, Berkeley, or Dorchester counties. Today’s article is titled:
2011 Charleston Harborfest May 12th- 15th
Charleston Harbor Fest is an annual event hosted by the South Carolina Maritime Foundation which is a public nonprofit organization that owns and operates the tall ship Spirit of South Carolina. The Charleston Harborfest is held at the Charleston maritime Center and is located in Downtown Charleston’s Upper Concord neighborhood. This festival is one of the major maritime events hosted by the Foundation to help fund our educational programs.
This festival is a true harbor-wide celebration of the sea. Attracting visitors and locals alike, this event is family-friendly and loads of fun for all ages. From the classic beauty of sailing ships and pirates giving their best “Argh” to the interactive educational exhibits, Charleston Harbor Fest offers an array of activities. You can be as hands-on as you want with activities ranging from tame to adventurous. Tour the ships, enjoy the scenic waterfront and relax with a beverage and fine Lowcountry fare. For those with more adventurous spirit may head out on the harbor for a sailing lesson. Please use this website to explore Charleston Harbor Fest and all the exciting elements it has to offer.
