    Having lived in the area for 4 years, Folly Beach has the best party scene. Sullivan's has excellent dining and IOP is somewhere in between but with excellent beach access and abundant parking.

    Awesome video! :) Which beach has the most accessible parking? When I visited (very briefly) it seemed like Folly had the most options with the county park and offshoot meter areas. Mount Pleasant area seemed to cater more towards the residents.

    • @KatarinaWestRE
      @KatarinaWestRE  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thank you so much! I have also found Folly to have the most accessible parking, but Isle of Palms has added more spots along the other side of the street on Palm Blvd so both sides of the street have parking now. There's also a large (paid) parking lot on Isle of Palms. But I've found that I never have to pay for parking at Folly by parking off street in the non-metered areas!

    These questions might sound silly lol but we are new to SC. Can you, typically, rent umbrellas, chairs, etc on the beaches or should you bring your own? Which beach do you think is best for newbies (we have a teenager)? Thanks for any help. Your video is great! Hugs!

    • @KatarinaWestRE
      @KatarinaWestRE  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Not a silly question and welcome to SC! Yes you can definitely rent umbrellas and chairs. My teenage brother actually works at the Isle of Palms Beach Chair Company, and I know there’s one on Folly too. But you can also bring your own too, so it’s up to your personal preferences. And they are all great beaches. If you’re looking for more things to do (beach shops, ice cream, restaurants, etc) then I’d recommend Folly or Isle of Palms! And thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed my video! I hope that helps :)

    Shello, where are the best snorkeling spots, less surfing the big waves & more calm waters for swimming? 🧜🏾‍♀️🌴🐚

    • @KatarinaWestRE
      @KatarinaWestRE  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi! Unfortunately, Charleston isn’t the best place for snorkeling as visibility is quite low due to the silt in the water. There are some artificial reefs offshore where the visibility is better, but those are a bit far from the mainland. You can swim near the beaches, and the intracoastal waterways are more calm but I’d be careful of all the boats. I see that you’re a mermaid, so maybe the SC Aquarium would be a good spot to swim, in one of their big tanks!

      @@KatarinaWestRE Are there any inlets that people go swimming in, that are near by? You also mentioned 2 other beaches that are 1hr away. Are they 1hr away going north or south on the coastline and are their waters calm with better visibility?

    • @KatarinaWestRE
      @KatarinaWestRE  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MermaidSyrena Not that I know of. There are some inlets but a few have dangerous rip currents so definitely no swimming there. And those beaches (Kiawah and Edisto) are further south. I think they are slightly more calm with perhaps some better visibility, but still far from clear. The South Carolina coastline unfortunately just doesn't have clear water.
