The Wave Vol. 5 | Things to Do in July 2025 in Charleston SC

 

From Fireworks to Frozé — Your Guide to Sizzling Summer Fun

July in Charleston is hot—and that’s just the way we like it. From beach fireworks to happy hour on the harbor, the city shines brightest in the summer. Sure, you’ll break a sweat, but that’s part of the Lowcountry charm. Just wear sun protection (like one of our UPF 50+ solar shirts) to stay cool and sunburn-free while you explore.
