Free or Inexpensive Things to Do In Charleston!
As summer starts to wind down and the anticipation of the new school year approaches, you may be thinking about some fun things to do with the family as a last hurrah before the routine starts all over again. I got to thinking about the fact that sometimes I don’t do things because of the cost. It must be even more difficult for a family. I decided to do a little research and found some things that might be fun and are either free or relatively inexpensive. Take a staycation in your own town.
Colonial Dorchester County State Park: This park has walking paths, picnic tables and remains of the old town include the brick bell tower of St. George’s Anglican Church, a fort made of the oyster-shell concrete and part of a log wharf visible at low tide. Admission for children is free. Adults are $2. Have a look at this video and see the beauty of the park. ETV Video
Charleston Tea Plantation: Located on Wadmalaw Island. It is the home of American Classic Tea, the only tea grown in the United States. Free factory tours. Open 7 days a week.
Charleston Children’s Museum: This is a great place for kids to visit. Children under 12 enter for free, everyone else is $7.

Charles Towne Landing: Adult $5, SC seniors $3.25, children ages 6 to 15 $3 and under 3 is free. Self-guided audio tour for the historic trail is an extra $5
Hope I’ve given you and your family some good ideas. Also don’t forget, if you just want to stay outdoors and stay cool you can always visit any of the three waterparks in Charleston or any one of our great beaches.
