No vacation to the South Carolina coast would be complete without a trip to the beach. When you stay on the island, be sure to visit Isle of Palms Beach. Our beach is quieter than others in the Charleston area, but does see larger crowds during holiday weekends. We recommend getting to the beach early during Labor Day weekend to stake out the perfect spot in the sand!
