Folly Field Beach

SC PICTURE PROJECT 1 Comment

Folly Field Beach, a favorite among surfers, is located on the “Mid-Island” section of Hilton Head. The first beach cottages were built on Folly Field Beach in 1953 to attract more visitors to Hilton Head Island. It has since become one of the most popular family beaches on the island, offering a boardwalk, playground, and picnic areas.

Reflections on Folly Field Beach

Photographer Summer Gagnon shares the photo below and says: “I took my daughter to Folly Field to see the sunrise and enjoy a lazy summer Sunday on the beach. I was standing on the boardwalk leading to the beach, admiring the beautiful sea oats. This photo became an instant favorite.”
