AN OVERVIEW

Charleston’s shrimpers and fishermen are honored annually at the Blessing of the Fleet and Seafood Festival in Mt. Pleasant, a family-friendly event that caps off a week of activities in the town celebrating the seafood industry. In addition to a parade put on by the iconic shrimp boats and a ceremony that includes prayer for the safety and success of their owners and operators, local restaurants vend tasty seafood concoctions and live music sets the mood.

 

For those who may find the whole event a little fishy, a shagging contest and arts and crafts fair are included in this year’s line-up of activities. This event is kid-friendly and free for admission and parking, so come on out to the Mt. Pleasant Memorial Waterfront Park on Sunday, April 28th, from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm and join in this celebration that draws over 12,000 people! For more information and updates on the events preceding the Blessing of the Fleet, watch the town calendar here.. For additional questions about the festival call (843) 884-8517.

Client Testimonials

  • A Charleston resident suggested a Traveling Ink concierge might be able to help me. It didn’t take long for me to realize that this was one of the best pieces of advice I could have received. My friends thought I was an organizational wizard even though I kept telling them it was Traveling Ink, not me.

  • We so enjoyed our time in Charleston. Thank you for all your insight! I am recommending your services to everyone I know who is traveling to Charleston!

    ~Kathryn C.
  • Traveling Ink planned the three full days we would have in Charleston, how we would get from one place to another, places to eat, and what the costs would be. To add to the challenge, we had to change the day of one of the main attractions because rain had been predicted. They handled all the changes with out missing a step.

    ~ Harriett H.
  • These Charleston pros do a phenomenal job in any setting. Audra was our point person and is a pleasure to work with. She is laid back and can work with any request.
