West Charleston begins just below West Ashley and extends west along Highway 17 (Savannah Highway). It is a beautiful, natural area with several rivers flowing in and around the neighborhood. Edisto Island and Wadmalaw Island sit along the southern border of the neighborhood, along with its world-famous beaches. Just minutes from Downtown Charleston, West Charleston residents can easily visit the city's historic sites, including the Charles Towne Landing State Historic Site and the French Quarter.
Filled with rural neighborhoods and undeveloped tracks of land, West Charleston contains several smaller communities, including Hollywood, Meggett, Adams Run, Jericho, and Parkers Ferry. Being both natural and historic, there are several unique parks to visit in West Charleston, such as Caw Caw Interpretive Center. Located on a historic 18th century rice plantation, this park is home to rare wildlife species, six miles of hiking trails, exhibits, and tea plants from a 20th century tea farm. The Dungannon Plantation Heritage Preserve is a historic park covering 643 acres and offering hiking and bird-watching, while the Ernest F. Hollings ACE Basin contains the Grove Plantation House (built in 1828), one of the few remaining antebellum mansions in the area. It is open for tours.
