With summer right around the corner, now is the time to get out and explore the Lowcountry. There are several events going on this month so we’ve rounded up three of our favorites:
- Tall Ships Charleston (May 19-21): This three-day festival kicks off with a “Parade of Sail” event in Charleston Harbor and runs throughout the weekend. Demonstrations, live music, cruises and more take place in the Old Charleston Naval Shipyard, giving people the chance to see ships from around the world.
