If you ask a Charlestonian which beach is their favorite, you'll probably get a different answer every time. That's because we are lucky to be surrounded by several gorgeous beaches. Catch a wave at Folly Beach, build sandcastles at Isle of Palms and watch the sun set behind Sullivan's Island's iconic lighthouse. You won't be able to pick a favorite either.
Also know as "The Edge of America", a beautiful barrier island minutes from downtown. The County Park is at the east end and includes showers, restrooms, picnic areas & more.
10-mile stretch of undisturbed Atlantic beach and natural beauty. Idyllic, private community. Public access to the beach is available at Beachwalker County Park.
Casual, unhurried and one of the most relaxing and family-friendly beaches on South Carolina's coast. Enjoy this charming island with dining venues, year-round.
Offering every activity imaginable. Beautiful ocean front with lifeguards on duty seasonally. Also has a family-oriented park located directly on the beach!
Just miles from Charleston, Seabrook Island features pristine beaches, championship golf courses, horseback riding, a marina and more. Seabrook Island: Make It Uniquely Yours.
