Sullivan's Island Beach
4.7A tranquil, wide sandy oceanfront escape near historic Charleston.
Sullivan's Island Beach offers a tranquil, wide sandy shore with gentle waves and scenic ocean views. Visitors can stroll along wooden boardwalk paths crossing vegetated dunes to access the soft sand and picturesque sandbars. The beach maintains a relaxed, uncluttered atmosphere free of heavy commercial development.
Expert notes
- We highly recommend visitors not forget to bring sunscreen, as the sun can be quite strong on the beach. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes as there is plenty of walking to be done on the beach. The beach is also pet-friendly, so visitors can bring their furry friends along for the day. One must-do activity is to take a guided tour of Fort Moultrie and learn about the history of the island. The ideal time to visit Sullivan's Island Beach is during the early morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat. The best months to visit are from May to September when the weather is warm and sunny.
