August feels like the Sunday of summer. It's the final stretch before school is back in session and life starts to get a little more hectic. That doesn't mean there isn't plenty of time left to enjoy the nice weather and explore the SouthCoast. To give readers a head start on some fun things to do this month, we asked some of our writers for their favorite summer places and activities and not surprisingly, we got a variety of answers. Check out these summer fun tips!
And while some restaurants offer guests waterfront dining, Charlotte's shares with its Westport customers a different scene: its wildlife. The market cafe specializes in prepared foods with fresh frozen items such as chicken pot pies and lasagna made with locally sourced produce, as well as grab-and-go specialty coffees – all with a rustic cabin-in-the-woods vibe. Grab a seat!
