Always a great place to stretch your legs and take in some of the charm and history of Charleston. Enjoy seeing the gardens and houses along the strip. The live oaks and spanish moss makes for some great shade as well.

Beautiful place. We just walked around and found lots of historic plaques and designated historic buildings. Beautiful! Maybe take a horse drawn carriage tour to learn more.

The scenery was beautiful. The city takes excellent care of the grounds. Met a wonderful young man that was recycling the palm and turning them into flowers. My dad gave us a great history lesson

Great for sunrise pics! Great for riding bikes! Watching ships pass! Working out! Picnic spot! Whatever you want to do outdoors!

Nice walk by the Bay. Very nice mansions just starting to decorate for Christmas. Go in a few weeks, and it will be beautiful.

Beautiful historical city. Homes are gorgeous. Took tons of pictures. Man fishing caught a shark while we were there!

Beautiful place!! If you come to Charleston, SC, you must visit The Battery!! The houses on the water are breathtaking! The oak trees are massive and adds so much beauty to the area! We loved learning about the history of the area and the buildings! Plenty of places to walk in the park and along the water. This area is big enough to bring your pets to play too. I love this area and could sit in the park all day!!

A beautiful place to walk if you are downtown Charleston, a beautiful view driving by on our boat. A must visit if you are a tourist in Charleston and a must not forget about if your a local like myself. Beautiful park across the street, all dog friendly when on a leash.

The battery is a park and sea wall on the historic southern tip of Charleston. Surrounded by some grand old homes it seems to have a constant breeze which is pleasant in the summer heat. Rich with cannons and monuments and a awesome view of the harbor. Visited it twice. During the day and a moonlit stroll at night.

Went there to watch the Halloween full blue moon rise over the Charleston Harbour. I wasnt disappointed. I beautiful fall evening. A brilliant sun set in the west over the Ashley River. Shortly after, the moon rose in the east over Sullivans Island & the Harbour. Sail boats cruised with passenger enjoying these scenes. Many others walked the battery taking photos of this wonderful site.

Such a beautiful park. Amazing beautiful old homes. Great walkways.

A great place to walk around and really soak up some southern scenery. The architecture along with the ancient oaks create a picturesque place that youll be hesitant to leave. Make sure you walk some of the neighborhood blocks to take in all the different houses.

Really great little park. Im glad I trusted reviews and walked the 20 minutes to get to it. Totally worth it. Had some really well-placed benches and felt very safe. Not crowded at all, maybe 50 or so people in the whole park when I went at around 4pm on a Wednesday. An Uber driver told us it is fantastic at sunset around 7 to 7:30. Im considering going back just for that!

It doesnt matter if you want to have a picnic, walk, riding a bike, watch a sunrise, or sunset the Battery is the place to go . The view of the ocean & the historical houses is always a spectacular sight. Its within walking or biking distance of the Charleston market for shopping & dining.

A nice place to walk around and start your day!

Really nice views and a nice walk around the park.

Always love to look over the water. Its one of my first stops when visiting Charleston

The Battery is one of the most remarkable places to visit while in Charleston. Even if I’m in town for business I always find time to visit.

My dad brings me here while he fishes off the pier. A lot of history in the area.

Love visiting Charleston. Showed my granddaughter the Battery for the first time.

Beautiful place! Walk along the inlet, stroll around and you the gorgeous homes in the area. Definitely a must stop and see. Parking is free

Beautiful homes With lots of history spending an entire day here is still not enough to absorb all the beauty this place has to offer. I love walking under the beautiful trees standing in the gazebo and then taking a walk along the waterfront.

A wonderful place for newcomers and visitors to get a sense and appreciation of Charlestons charm. You can find it all here. Magnificent homes with sprawling porches, live oaks providing shade, fountains, statues honoring great Charlestonians, and water in the Charleston Bay.

A very serene place to visit for both sunrise and sunset

Beautiful location to just meander and enjoy the view of the harbor. A few historic statue and plaques. Gorgeous trees.

Wonderful beautiful place to go near downtown Charleston. Most of the bad reviews are for the confederate statues but I love history and support showing our not so clean history with people. Great view of the water and pretty good sight of the fort.

A great mix of history from the revolution to WWII

I enjoyed it very much. Nice weather, nice food, nice people, nice everything.

One of the few benefits to COVID-19, fewer tourists, which means us locals can enjoy our area without being suffocated ️

This is a must visit when in Charleston. Great spot for photo ops, picnics, romantic walks, coffee, or just getting some fresh air. Theres plenty of room to maintain social distancing and its away from the crowds of the market and shops on king street. Youll be glad you took the time to visit this historically rich park. @tripswithjake

The Battery was breathtaking! We loved walking around, seeing all of the sights, and reading about the history. The sunset view was gorgeous!

I absolutely love visiting The Battery. Theres a nice park you can visit with large live oaks, war memorials and a nice seaside walking area that is very long. You can walk right next to the waves breaking against the seawall as you observe the beauty of Rainbow Row and the amazing lowcountry architecture.

Nice cool breeze on summer nights. Beautiful view of the ocean and passingboats. Variety of different people you meet.Nice place to sit and eat lunch,dinner or ice cream.

Beautiful place worth going to see if your in town. Park and stretch your legs

Beautiful scenery. The birds are black crowned night heron babies, must be quiet while watching them. Historical figures and monuments.

Ive driven many times pass the battery, but today was the first time walking it. It was beautiful and the fact that the sun was setting made it even more enjoyable.

Best views in Charleston and makes for an amazing bike ride

Great outdoor park to walk around and explore historic Charleston. Loved the architecture of all the houses and buildings. Dog friendly, nice views, and free parking.

This is a very nice park. Its spacious and open. Not so shade and park benches to city on. Ideal for family picnics. With a great view of the harbor for the two rivers intersect. Adjacent to rainbow row with many wonderful homes and mansions.

Nice neighborhood and pleasant for a short walk. Parking was not a problem and there was a lot of boat activity on the water. If your in Charleston stop by if your looking for something to do outside thats free.

Took my daughter to see it, she was delighted with it.

It was great. Nice park!

Part water front, Part historic landmark, part sidewalk looking at peoples homes. Since you cant tour the houses, youre better off exploring the market, then visiting the beach. Rainbow row is overrated.

Visited on an overcast, rainy day during the holidays in 2006. As a born and raised US Southerner from even farther south, It felt right to be here on such a day to see where the War of Northern Aggression (always the way my late grandmother referred to it) officially began, doomed from the start. Im very much an American and a lover of all our history, good and bad, successful and doomed, beautiful and ugly.

Very COOL place to walk and feel the seabreeze. It just so happened that today there was a protest developing from the murder case of George Floyd. Captured a few pics of the polices demanding that everyone disperse due to illegal gathering for a protest without a permit.

Beautiful scenery and lots of interesting statues and information to see

Im on Vaca. And loved the tour. Y my best friend. This place is beautiful

Watched the sailboats float by as the gentle breezes blew in from offshore. An enjoyable spot for a picnic or to bring the kids to see the cannons. Views of both the Ashley and the Cooper as well as the forts. Watch the Night Herons in their rookery or walk the sidewalks to other spots downtown.

Beautiful location with great eating within walking distance. This is my wifes favorite place to go on the weekends

We were there in February and it was a bit wet but very beautiful. We love history and there is plenty here! There wasnt many people around and we were able to park our truck and travel trailer along side the the park.

Such a beautiful place. Great way to spend on a mid morning stroll before the heat and the crowds.

It was nice and cool last night on the battery. The tide was exceptionally high. Pleasant atmosphere I had to catch my second wind after experiencing my very first motorcycle ride.

Very nice place. A picnic would be nice with the family. Open air for kids top run and enjoy. No play ground though. Beautiful trees. Nice place for wedding and engagement pictures.

Wonderful piece of Charleston history. We enjoyed it thoroughly.

Very nice place. very pretty place . Clean nice walk around the water front

Good for taking walks or just having lunch in the park. Lots of shade and places to sit in the summer. Great view of the harbor.

Worth a short stroll if its a nice day

Beautiful place. Ocean front and history with free parking!

Exceptional place to take a stroll along the Intercostal Water Way in downtown Charleston. An iconic must visit spot while in the area. Great place to bring a date.

Very historic and a place that needs to be visited while in South Carolina

History and architecture are amazing. Lots of places to see and walk. I love Charleston.

Nice place to walk near the sea

We love the history of this area. The park is beautiful. The views of the bay are excellent. The houses are gorgeous. Definitely check it out!

Small but beautiful. However, walking the streets and looking at the stunningly, beautiful Charleston homes is well worth the visit. The only negative, which is the problem with ALL of Charleston, is lack of public parking.

Great educational family spot. Really enjoyed it !!

Beautiful place.Its necessary to wear comfortable shoes or sneakers because its a walkable area.

Very beautiful and a lovely walk with beautiful views along the harbor. Parks on either end and plenty of chances for photos.

Well tended route. Clean and historic. Houses are fun to look at.

Absolutely fantastic park. Nicely looked after and also a great place for the kids to run around

Love walking this area, great things to see amd shopping.

I love this great area in Charleston. It is so relaxing to take a long walk here...

A beautiful place during the day but magical at night. We walked the historical houses on a week night and were very surprised how quiet it was. The lights on the homes at night changed the atmosphere and made it a romantic evening.

Beautiful area at sunset with good parking and ample area to walk and take in the historic sights.

Great safe park for my granddaughter to run and play.

I like to go early in the morning or in the evening for sunrise and sunsets. It can be pretty crowded in the middle of the day, but I never seem to have a problem finding parking.

Nice place, nice views, great trees, way to hot

Nice place to walk around and enjoy being outside.

One of my favorite places in downtown Charleston! No trip to Charlest on is complete without a visit there.White Point Garden with lovely old oaks and park benches.Great view of Charleston Harbor and Fort Sumter.Tip...if you take a carriage ride the guides no longer have to pass a text for accurate history...so check out things for yourself on line.This morning I happen to hear some woefully inaccurate info being given regarding the historic gazebo in the park. Sadly, few tourists are better informed as to call them out.

Great historic atmosphere and the view is amazing

Beautiful waterfront and nice green space looking at the beautiful homes.

Walked through. Great views. Enjoyed it.

There are some statues and cannons by the sidewalk. The wooded park is nice.

Always a good day at the Battery. Good fishing, lots of boats, birds and sometimes dolphins swim by

Majestic houses , iconic cannons , statues and a park for a very historical place

Awesome place to fly a drone. Cool stuff, even seen a passed out drunk person

Very Historical Landmark next to the water! One of the best places on Earth to visit!

This is a place that I have been visiting for years and keep finding something interesting each time. I suggest staying on the Battery and put some walking shoes on. When we visit, we park at the hotel and dont get back in our vehicle until we are leaving. There are carriage rides to take or walk to ferry site to take a ride to Fort Sumter.

Great peaceful park with water views and great breezes.

Very peaceful place to have a date night walk or a picnic with your family. Lots of history in one place. Also a good fishing spot during high tide.

I have been visiting this place since I moved to SC 31 yrs ago. I absolutely love this park. The wildlife is so amazing and the view is wonderfully serene.

Stopped by for coffee after walking from The Mills House to the battery. Great coffee!

I learned so much and it was very beautiful.. very scenery.. I had a really good time.. its a lot of walking so make sure you have comfortable footwear..

I grew up in Charleston. Race sailboats off the battery for years. Even watched submarine races there at night. As beautiful as ever.

I will never miss out going to the battery while I am in Charleston. The park is gorgeous with all the live oak trees and the walk along the ocean is so scenic. I feel instantly at peace when I am here.

Great place For a walk… Very nice park… Nice history… Great for a bicycle riding as well… They must stop Destination for tourists and locals alike

Downtown Charleston is the best city in the U.S. for a walk. The old homes and gardens are stunning, and some of them look out on the bay.

Very interesting and historic. It was hot in 90s. Warning be careful where you walk. The birds in the trees will crapp on you and leave you smelling. It happened to a family member.

Beautiful area to view the harbor and relax in a bench. It would be nice if there were closer places to get water or drinks.

Dolphins. Didnt grow up near the water. This is so amazing to see real dolphins in the wild.

Have good memories of time at the battery while serving in the Navy.
