Located just 10 minutes from historic Charleston, Folly Beach is Charleston's original beach town. Once a vacation resort, it is now an incorporated community that offers a beachfront neighborhood with a mainstay of individualism. While Folly Beach has grown enough during the years to attract visitors, it has maintained its relaxed beach town atmosphere.

Folly Beach is a great place for outdoor activities ranging from fishing and crabbing to waterskiing and surfing. It also boasts South Carolina's longest fishing pier. At more than 1,000 feet, the Folly Pier offers serious angling, great sightseeing, a snackbar, tackle shop and full service restaurant.

Folly Beach County Park is a beautiful public beach access park with 4,000 feet of ocean frontage and 2,000 feet of river frontage.
