When I first moved to South Carolina of course I went exploring! I found the Beach Inlet while looking for unoccupied beaches.
Beach Inlet is between Sullivan’s Island and Folly Island. It’s easy access to get to by car and a very nice parking lot.
It was a nice spring day when I visited and no one was there! Of course that may be because you can not swim at this beach. There are signs warning you not to. Surprising or not, no Alligator warnings. Probably not safe for them here either! Every year, hundreds of people drown after getting sucked into jets of seawater. Warning signs on their own can only do so much.
There are plenty of places to explore in the Charleston area. Caper Island, Bull Island (Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge) and Morris Island are only accessible by boat. There are boat tours available through Coastal expeditions https://www.coastalexpeditions.com and very affordable. The best thing about the tours, other than the beauty you can find there, is no crowds!
There are walking tours, carriage tours and bus tours which provide additional information about the history of Charleston. The nice thing is no tour is the same each time. There is always something new you can learn.
