Charleston Beaches

A beach vacation full of sunny possibilities

This is the sandy, sun-kissed vacation of your childhood. Starfish and sandcastles, bocce ball and volleyball, and miles of the best beaches in Charleston, SC. Whether you spend your day in a hammock under the shade of a palm tree, or on a striped beach blanket with the sunscreen slathered on, you’re sure to find the ideal spot to relax and unwind.

Isle of Palms

Located just 12 miles from historic downtown Charleston, Isle of Palms offers 6 miles of white sandy beaches, championship golf, and inspired coastal eats. Known for its family atmosphere, this beach is perfect for your entire crew!

Local Tip: After spending a day in the sand, be sure to check out local favorite, The Windjammer, for drinks and live music. You never know what big-name artist or up-and-comer you might discover next.

Sullivan’s Island

Sullivan’s Island is a 2.5-mile long coastal barrier island with a population of a little over 2,000 residents. This trendy but peaceful small town is perfect for couples, friends, and families to explore. Don’t forget to stroll down Middle St. for shopping, ice cream, and art galleries to take home a piece of Sullivans Island with you!

Local Tip: Stop by The Co-Op Frosé & Eatery for breakfast and a fresh brewed coffee or frosé before you hit the beach! We recommend The New Yorker (a toasted everything bagel with smoked salmon, double herb cheese, onions, capers, cucumbers, and salt and pepper) paired with the “world-famous” Frosé.

Local Tip: Eat like a local at Folly Beach Crab Shack! Their heaping portions of fresh (never frozen) seafood will be the cherry-on-top of your beach day. Just
