Travel up the Ashley River to the original landing site of the first settlers at Albermarle Point, now the home of Charlestowne Landing. From there, travel further up the Ashley River to see the plantations of Middleton Place, Magnolia Gardens, and Drayton Hall. View the locations of the original rice fields belonging to these Plantations, which helped bring prosperity to the Charleston area.
Take a cruise out to the mouth of the harbor known as "The Jetties". Along the way, you'll pass Fort Sumter, famous for the location where the War Between the States started on April 12, 1861. Directly across from Fort Sumter stands Fort Moultrie to which dates all the way back to the Revolutionary War. The original fort, made out of palmetto logs, was the location where the Patriots first repelled a British invasion on June 28, 1776.
Other points of interest available for sightseeing by boat are the USS Yorktown, the famous World War II aircraft carrier nicknamed "The Fighting Lady". Castle Pinckney, built just before the War of 1812, but never used until it served as a prison for captured Union Soldiers and Sailors during the Civil War, is located in the harbor at the mouth of the Cooper River. Shem Creek, home of Charleston's famous shrimp fleet, is just around the corner from the aircraft carrier. Also seen from this area are the lighthouses at Sullivan's Island and Morris Island.
