Known as the 'Edge of America,' it offers six miles of wide, sandy shores perfect for sunbathing, surfing, and fishing. The iconic Folly Beach Pier stretches into the Atlantic, providing prime views and a great spot for anglers. Beyond the beach, explore the Folly River for kayaking and paddleboarding through tidal creeks. The Morris Island Lighthouse, accessible by boat or a long beach walk, is a historic landmark.
