Folly Beach Things to Do: A South Carolina Seaside Getaway
I love a good family vacation, and this is a great place for it. Read my tips for Folly Beach things to do!
Close to Kiawah Island and Charleston, but far enough away to feel like a small town, I am a big fan of this South Carolina destination!

Fun Things to do in Folly Beach:
♥ Sunbathe & Swim– The pebbly sand at Folly Beach is perfect for sunbathing. Some days the ocean is calm and like a warm bath, great for swimming or floating. You can also find places to rent out beach chairs, coolers, umbrellas, and more!
♥ Surfing– While the waves were a bit rough during my trip, I’m sure surfers love it. There are plenty of places giving surf lessons too if you want to try it out!

♥ Fishing Charter Boats- One of the most fun things to do is be out on the open ocean, lines in the water. It’s a mystery what creature of the deep you might catch! Check here for a few local fishing charter companies.
♥ Stand Up Paddle Boarding (SUP)- Get out on the water, and get some exercise! Take a “safari” and explore the local nature while soaking up the sun. Charleston SUP Safaris is a good place to start!
♥ Eat & Drink at the Pier– Take a break from the heat by strolling over to the Folly Beach Pier for a drink, and grab food at Pier 101. Lunch with a view and sandy feet is always a great feeling!
♥ Fish & Stroll the Pier– If you love fishing, this is the place to do it. If you don’t, simply watching to see what others catch is a fun time! Also, it’s almost guaranteed you’ll see a few dolphins from here.

♥ Souvenir Shopping– Visit one of many fun souvenir shops in the area. Selling your standard tourist fare but also unique gifts, it’s a fun way to spend a rainy day.
♥ Rent a Bike or Golf Cart- One of my favorite things to do in Folly Beach! The town is small enough to walk everywhere, yet big enough to keep you interested.
I’m a big fan of the popularity of bike riding on the island. Loads of people will rent golf carts too, which can be fun, but be careful of each other!
