Explore Folly Beach Vacation Rentals

Located on one of South Carolina's charming barrier islands, Folly Beach is a relaxing and fun summer vacation destination for families with young children. Also known as "The Edge of America", Folly Beach is a gently sloping stretch of clean sand, so it's a perfect place to relax and let children explore the waves, dig in the sand, and scan the horizon for dolphins. When you're ready to explore beyond the beach, there are plenty of things to do here for children and adults alike. The county park area extends inland from the shore and offers walking trails and nature exploration opportunities. Additionally, you can relax in a spa, play golf, or enjoy the museums and nightlife of downtown Charleston.

Here are some suggestions of things to do in Folly Beach:

-Take an eco-tour: Explore the barrier island salt marshes on an excursion led by scientists. Learn about wildlife and native plant species along the coast, see dolphins interact, and even listen to them speaking to each other through an underwater microphone attached to the boat.

-Visit historic downtown Charleston: Explore the charming old-world architecture of this historic city just a 15 minute trip from Folly Beach. Shop at the boutiques and stop to rest your feet at a side street cafe.
