2011 4th Of July in Charleston, South Carolina  Folly Beach, about 15 minutes from downtown Charleston, has always been my personal favorite locales to enjoy the fireworks display.  Have cocktails and dinner on the beach or one of folly beaches local restaurants and bars early.  Then settle down with a blanket and a cooler and watch the sky light up. Directions are easy, take Folly Road until it dead ends into the Folly Beach Holiday Inn, and you there.  Park the car and it is just a short stroll to the Folly Beaches premier restaurants and bars. 

  Another personal favorite location to watch the 4th of July fireworks is on Isle of Palms.  Party the night away at the Windjammer or another local beach bar.  How convenient, bars and fireworks!  Live music won't be hard to find this night either. The Windjammer knows how to choose their live bands on holidays like this.  Don't miss out!  If that's not a proper Independence Day celebration, than what is?  Visit IOP's many bars and restaurants for a "jam good time".

  As a patriotic city, the greater Charleston, SC area is the place to be for the 4th of July, 2011.  See what Charleston areas restaurants and bars have lined up for our day of independence.  Happy Fourth!
