We explore the heavens in Palmetto Moons & Starry Tar Heel Skies, thanks to clear winter skies and a great selection of planetariums and observatories. We share four great options across the Carolinas where you can see the stars.

Celebrate Black heritage with a coastal tour in North Carolina (Stony the Road They Trodded) and a Charleston city tour (Follow the Wrought Iron Road), complete with a few interactive experiences (and great food, of course!).

And while the winter weather conditions are fleeting here in the Carolinas, you have some options to experience (or simulate) the life of our more northern friends. In Just Because the Snow Isn't Real… we take you bobsledding (sort of), curling, indoor skydiving, snowshoeing and snow tubing.
