Nestled in Mount Pleasant, which is located right over the Ravenel Bridge, this museum features a wealth of American history. Start with a tour of the Cold War Memorial, which sits as a tribute to the troops and families of those who served in attack submarines during the Cold War. You’ll find seven unique stations with educational plaques surrounding the replica of the size and shape of an authentic submarine. Used specifically during WWII, the USS Yorktown is a focal point in the city and is stationed at the museum. Dedicated to the boldest Americans who served in the military on the ship, you cannot help but feel a strong sense of patriotism when you walk through this enormous ship that’s now a floating museum.
Play a round of golf at the Golf Links, which is a gorgeous public course situated on the harbor side of the museum. There’s a southern-style clubhouse, a patio and grill. For the more adventurous types, there are helicopter tours available, as well. Guests can view the surrounding regions from a different perspective and it makes for a perfect photo opportunity. And don’t forget to save time for the Waterfront Park and Pier. Located just under the base of the Ravenel Bridge, this newly built park is a fantastic place to spend a day. They have a visitor’s center, a fishing pier and biking paths. Take advantage of Choice Hotels and all they have to offer you while you are near Patriot's Point.
