With the Fourth of July just around the corner, there’s no better place to unwind and celebrate than Folly Beach. Located along the coast just minutes from Charleston, this charming island offers the perfect relaxation and adventure for families, couples, and friends.
 
Folly Beach is a peaceful escape packed with fun. Spend your holiday soaking up the sun, hitting the waves with a surf or paddleboard session, or cruising the island on a stylish moped rental and looking for a thrilling experience? Try your hand at a fishing charter for a memorable offshore experience. Prefer something more low-key? We’d recommend a sunset cruise or evening walk on the beach. 
 
Downtown Charleston is just a short drive away and can add even more to your weekend by exploring historic homes, visiting museums and gardens, or cruising the shops and restaurants. Whether you’re just a beginner or a seasoned pro, golfers can enjoy the area’s scenic, well-maintained courses. 
 
Don’t worry about what to eat on your vacation, Folly Beach is full of local favorites like Taco Boy, Folly Beach Crab Shack, and Lost Dog Cafe. And if you’re up for venturing into Charleston, you’ll find award-winning spots like SNOB, Charleston Grill, Oak, and O-Ku.
 
Folly Beach is ideal for celebrating the Fourth of July with those you love most. The fireworks display is steps from our hotel, so book your stay at Waters Edge Inn today and start planning your unforgettable holiday weekend.
