Very beautiful and clean beach. Has restrooms, changing rooms, shop to buy refreshments, and picnic areas. People are polite and it's not over crowded.

There are tons of beaches around Charleston, but this may be one of my favorites. Yes, you do need to pay to park, but the amenities are very nice. There are lifeguards and condition warnings, there are quality bathrooms and changing areas. The beach itself may not be the biggest, but it is in good repair and has a lot of places that you can walk to. I would not count this location out!

Fantastic beach with thin sand, very comfortable to walk , feel the sea breeze and spend a relaxing moment. There are nice clean restrooms and outdoor showers. Unlike other beaches, this one has very restricted access, I believe there's only 150 parking spots, so plan to arrive early or you'll have to wait long time. We went there on a Saturday at 10am, and the staff put us in a waiting app and had to wait 50 minutes to be called, they text you once a parking spot is available, but you cannot wait in the premises so you'll see yourself just driving around until then. Despite the parking hassles, once you're in everything is perfect! Parking price was 20 dollars on the weekend.

The place is just absolutely stunning. No other beach in the area can simply compare! The dolphins are so friendly and the pretzels at the snack bar are better than Philadelphia’s pretzels 🥨

This is my chill mode beach. Usually, it isn't busy, and you're able to walk the beach. The scenery is different from any of the other beaches around. There are not a lot of shells to collect, but not here for that. Well maintained beach, restrooms were immaculate, changing area, rinse off area, rental place open throughout the day, nice walkout area, and Dog friendly, (have to be on a leash) You will not be disappointed if you try it!
