WHITE POINT GARDEN

2 Murray Boulevard,
Charleston, SC 29401 Directions

Since 1837

“White Point Garden provides a gorgeous view of Fort Sumter and Charleston Harbor, where the Ashley and Cooper rivers flow into the Atlantic Ocean. The park was first opened as a public garden in 1837. In 1962, Charleston sculptor Willard Hirsch was approved by Miss Sally Carrington to form a bronze statue of a dancing girl. The statue was given as a gift to the city and installed as a water fountain in White Point Garden on a shallow granite base so children could use it easily. The park is a great place to walk with your soulmate, bring your dog, stroll, pick a spot, read, or have a picnic. You can enjoy the views of the ocean and sidewalks everywhere.”
