You can ride a bike through the resort and check out some of the glamourous vacation homes or rent some tennis rackets and enjoy a quick match. Don&rsquo;t forget to get in at least a good hour or two at the beach, where the warm water is clean and the waves are gentle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re feeling adventurous, sign up for an eco-tour at the front desk to explore South Carolina&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g54283-d1136176-Reviews-Barrier_Islands_Eco_Tours-Isle_of_Palms_South_Carolina.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">barrier islands<\/a> and learn more about their environments. Have dinner at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.opentable.com\/r\/coastal-provisions-isle-of-palms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Coastal Provisions<\/a>, a high-class restaurant located on the first floor of The Boardwalk Inn&mdash;you can even choose to eat poolside or enjoy cabana service. After dinner, head to the nightly bonfire and pick-up s&rsquo;more supplies at Hudson&rsquo;s Market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saturday: <\/strong>If you&rsquo;re traveling to South Carolina for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartertravel.com\/2016\/07\/22\/best-golf-destinations-around-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">golf<\/a>, Wild Dunes is a great place to get an early tee time at either <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wilddunes.com\/south-carolina-harbor-course.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Harbor<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wilddunes.com\/south-carolina-links-course.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Links Course<\/a>. If you&rsquo;re not a golfer, you can wake up early to enjoy a beautiful sunrise on the beach before heading into Charleston for the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get a ride into the city, forget Uber and call <a href=\"http:\/\/rickburton.wixsite.com\/charlestontowncar\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Captain Bob<\/a>, a town car service that will give you a ride from Wild Dunes to downtown for just $20. (Ubers are hard to come by on the Isle of Palms.) If you&rsquo;re lucky, you may even get to ride with the affable Captain himself, who is more than happy to make recommendations for what to do, see, and eat in town and he&rsquo;ll even customize a special tour just for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once in Charleston, sign up for a carriage tour of the city. This is great for kids and the best way to explore its offerings at a leisurely pace. You&rsquo;ll be able to buy tickets for the carriage rides in town but can also book ahead online. After the carriage ride, take some time to explore the rest of Charleston, but don&rsquo;t leave without stopping for dinner and drinks at the stunning <a href=\"http:\/\/5churchcharleston.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">5Church<\/a> restaurant. Located inside a renovated mariner&rsquo;s church, this is the perfect place to enjoy the harmony of old and new in Charleston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sunday:<\/strong> Make the most of your last morning at Wild Dunes by relaxing by the pool or beach. After checking out (and depending on how much time you have before your flight), head back downtown for the afternoon and grab lunch in Charleston, or make a stop on the way to the airport to tour the magnificent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.magnoliaplantation.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Magnolia Plantation and Gardens<\/a>. For lunch, I recommend the <a href=\"http:\/\/amenstreet.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amen Street Fish &amp; Raw Bar<\/a> and if there&rsquo;s time, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/nr\/travel\/charleston\/osm.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Old Slave Mart Museum<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g54171-d104625-Reviews-Nathaniel_Russell_House-Charleston_South_Carolina.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nathaniel Russell House<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading\"><strong>More from SmarterTravel:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartertravel.com\/best-golf-destinations-around-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Best Golf Destinations Around the World<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartertravel.com\/10-beaches-that-are-better-in-the-fall\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">10 Beaches That Are Better in the Fall<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartertravel.com\/americas-best-long-weekend-getaways\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">America&rsquo;s Best Long Weekend Getaways<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Editor&rsquo;s note: This story was originally published in 2016.
