Ice Skating

This season, South Carolina is getting its own little slice of the North Pole as Charleston Harbor Resort & Marina announces its first-ever synthetic ice skating rink and Winter Wonderland experience. The 100% recyclable and non-toxic rink also has no energy costs associated, making it a “green” alternative to traditional ice rinks.

Opening Thanksgiving Day, ‘Ice Skating on the Point’ will delight guests of all ages throughout the holiday season along with fun activities and festive treats. The rink will be open to hotel guests at The Beach Club and Harborside as well as local residents.

To help warm up to Charleston’s dropping temperatures, the Winter Wonderland will offer cozy rink side fire places for rent, delicious hot chocolate and gourmet s’mores kits designed to be cooked over the surrounding area fire pits. A donut-making station will also fill hungry elves in addition to snacks.   Fun is designed for the whole family with jump castles and corn hole. 

Open seasonally.
