Just over the Ben Sawyer Bridge from Mount Pleasant, Sullivan's Island is a small, laid-back beach town with a charm all its own. Classic beach cottages and historic homes line its quiet streets, and there are no high-rises or big resorts, just wide beaches and ocean breezes. History buffs love Fort Moultrie and the island's iconic lighthouse. Middle Street draws locals for casual dining and a lively evening scene, while Isle of Palms, Shem Creek, and downtown Charleston are all an easy drive away.
