We did not get to experience the summer on this vast beach. We wanted to venture out of our hotel and chose to walk on the beach in the cold weather. There's a lot of parking and a bathroom, which was closed due to seasonal hours. At this time, there was no fee to enter as we were the only ones there. Hopefully I get another layover here during the summer. I will definitely return.

Beautiful, well kept park. Cost is $5 per car. Large gravel parking lot with a few paved handicap parking spots. Pavilion & several beach access points. This park takes up the entire south end of Folly Island. Changing stalls, restrooms. Great place to watch sunrise and sunset.

I fished off the Folly Beach pier and had an absolute blast! It's beautiful. For $4 you can't go wrong. They have a nice bar outside just before you enter the pier as well as a nice restaurant just in front of the bar which you can dine inside or out. There's a well stocked tackle shop where you can rent a rod. Impressive please which I will definitely frequent again and again!

We went to Folly beach for a day trip on a Friday. The entrance fee is per car $15 M-F and $25 on the weekends during the summer. We arrived after 11 am and there were only a couple of parking spots left. So make sure to come in early. They have plenty of changing rooms and a rinse off station. The proximity to the beach from the parking is very close. There were lifeguards at the beach which is very nice. If you want less crowded space you would need to walk further away but then you are swimming on your own risk. There were a couple of turtle nests down the beach, they were fenced off and had a sign saying that they should not be disturbed. We also saw a dolphin playing in the waves which made my day!

Comparing folly to Destin beaches it’s not as good, but we had an overall good time at the beach they had concession stands with pretty good milkshakes,and a really good cinnamon pretzel. the beach is clean no trash laying around and have a spray off area and parking was $15 which was a pretty good deal. The view was nice and wasn’t too crowded on the beach. overall it was good and I would go back
