The High Battery in Charleston is one of the best places to watch the sun rise. Not only do you have a clear view across Charleston Harbor to see the sun come up over Mt. Pleasant or Sullivan's Island, you have a wonderful view of incredibly historic sites such as Fort Sumter and the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown.
