Know Before You Go

Today, Fort Moultrie and the surrounding batteries on the southern tip of Sullivan’s Island are open to the public and present a fascinating story to the public of how citizens of Charleston responded to the war in the early days of the American Revolution. 

Before You Go

Please be wary of local signage warning of the dangers of the inlet. The area is known for strong rip currents and it highly advised to stay out of the water due to risk of personal safety.
