10 Things to Do in Folly Beach

10 Things to Do in Folly Beach // girl about columbusLocated 10 miles from downtown Charleston, South Carolina, Folly Beach is a favorite travel destination for some R&R. Folly has it all: Clean beaches, delicious food, comfortable accommodations, unpretentious character, and memorable beauty. Here are some must-do’s while visiting Folly Beach:

Folly-Beach

  1. ) Enjoy some yummy food at local favorites such as Taco Boy – where tacos, nachos, and margaritas steal the show – and Woody’s Pizza, the best place on Folly to grab a pizza, subs, and cold beer.

2.) Work off that food by doing something active – kayaking, taking surfing lessons, and renting a  paddleboard all are excellent choices.folly-beach-south-carolina

3.) Venture to the northeast end of Folly Beach to see the historical Morris Island Lighthouse. Due to erosion, the lighthouse is no longer in operation but it still is a sight to be seen.Folly_Beach_Sunrise_Charleston_South_Carolina

4.) Watch the sunrise. One of the best spots to catch the sunrise is by Morris Island Lighthouse. The views will not disappoint!Folly_Beach_Sunrise_South_Carolina

    We love Loggerheads and Follywood as well. The area has changed much, but keeps its charm.

    Taco Boy is the BEST!! Fishing off the pier is also a great experience. You can also take a boat tour out to Morris Island, highly recommend it. Still one of my favorite all time things we’ve done in about 10 years of vacationing on Folly.

🤍 It's time to refresh our towels + bedding for the New Year! After heading to @meijerstores, I picked up fresh white towels, pretty patterned sheets + pillowcases, and a classic, crisp white quilt. 🥰 To keep everything tidy, I added in some woven baskets + wire bins. I layered in greenery 🌱 for natural elements as well as pretty + functional cleaners, a gorgeous candle, and a sign with personality! How do you keep your bath and bedroom linens organized? #Meijer #NewYear #Organization

This was intentional & planned before what happened this week. Just because I’ve been silent on here doesn’t mean I haven’t been speaking out in real life. I chose to listen on here, quite a lost art that I’m personally working on improving this year. 🤍 I’ll leave you with this: The other day, Ava and I were reading Parker Looks Up, one of the books we’re reading this month. 📖 She looked at me and said, “I love her skin Mommy. Isn’t it pretty?” Yes, my dear it is. ❤️
