Want to feel like you're in that swan-filled paddleboat scene from the movie, The Notebook? Make the short drive to the Cypress Gardens in Monck's Corner. Situated just outside of Charleston, the beautiful Cypress Gardens are nestled within an enchanting black water cypress swamp. From the camellia in January to the antique roses in May, this southern conservatory promises something gorgeous to behold during any season. In addition to the gardens, visitors can explore 3.5 miles of nature trails, the Butterfly House, which boasts over 12 species of butterflies, and the Swamparium, a home to various fish, amphibians and reptiles.
