Plan Your Trip - Patriots Point
While Patriots Point is home to the Naval & Maritime Museum, there is much more to see and do here on our own little slice of paradise! Located in Mount Pleasant side of the Charleston Harbor, Patriots Point is easily accessible via Highway 17 and, arguably, has the greatest views of the picturesque Arthur Ravenel Bridge and the downtown peninsula. Convenience and views aside, Patriots Point plays host to more attraction and amenities than you can experience in a day so maybe you should stay with us...

Check out Charleston Harbor Resort with luxurious rooms and stellar views of the Charleston Harbor and the downtown peninsula. Take a stroll down the Charleston Harbor Marina , the largest marina in South Carolina, lined with sailboats, yachts and boats. Catch a ride across the Cooper River to the peninsula with Charleston Water Taxi - it's a quick way to get downtown that provides views you won't get on a car of bus ride.

Also, The Cottages on Charleston Harbor offers an exclusive collection of quaint cottages where you can relax in rocking chairs in screened-in porches but enjoy all the amenities to which you've grown accustomed like high-speed Internet access and concierge services.

Don't miss Patriots Point's opportunities for the athlete and sports enthusiast either. Patriots Point Links offers an 18-hole par 72 championship golf course with views of the Cooper River and Fort Sumter. Patriots Point also plays host to the College of Charleston Athletics Sports Complex where guests may be able to catch at a Cougars baseball, softball or soccer game or tennis match. Looking to run the massive Arthur Ravenel Bridge? Just beyond the College of Charleston Sports Complex, park your vehicle in a safe, designated parking area and walk, run or bike the bridge into downtown.

After you tour Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum to your heart's content, hop aboard a SpiritLine Cruises tour around Charleston Harbor or to Fort Sumter. Ft. Sumter Tours provides boat transportation to the island fort where the Civil War began. Dinner cruises and private charters are also available.

The newest addition to Patriots Point is the City of Mount Pleasant's beautiful Memorial Waterfront Park . Turn down Harry M. Hallman, Jr. Boulevard to visit this spectacular park complete with sweeping views of the Cooper River, the Kruger B. Smith Visitor Center, Sweetgrass Cultural Arts Pavilion, children's playground, 1250' fishing pier and War Memorial.
