Staff reports  |  There are endless ways to celebrate the nation’s independence Thursday, ranging from cheering the annual Salute from the Shore flyover along the coast (about 1:10 p.m. to 1:24 p.m. along the Charleston County coast) to enjoying fireworks, which can be watched during celebrations at Patriots Point, Isle of Palms, Sullivan’s Island, North Charleston, Summerville, Folly Beach and Edisto Beach.  We continue to maintain that the best place to see lots of fireworks is someplace up high, such as the round Holiday Inn on the Ashley River in Charleston.
