I enjoy the food. Some folks don't think the food is that great. But I love the laid back eating area (well - old, run down may be a better way to really describe it). But after dinner (which is served on paper plates) you can walk right out on to the dock at Shem Creek. Note it can be a bit expensive.

A nice and quiet beach that's close to home! Not as crowded as some other beaches. There are many access points to the beach - we usually use station 22 1/2 or 23. But sometimes we go farther down by the lighthouse.
Note: No restroom access, no rinse off showers or snacks at this beach. And - beach rules state no alcohol on the beach.

Another great beach. A bit more 'happening' than the quiet Sullivans Island beach. Here is you get to the beach through the park, there is an area with lifegaurds which I love the comfort of on some days! From this beach you can access rinse off showers, restrooms, changing areas and snacks. To park in the park is a $10 fee.
