Catching a performance and a blended co*cktail here while taking in the fabulous views? There’s almost nothing better. Other favorite dining options include the more casual and family-friendly Coconut Joe's on the beach. Located in Wild Dunes, Coastal Provisionsserves more upscale local fare.

The island has its own grocery store, beach rental shops, and some small locally-owned shops, but since Charleston is just a 30-minute drive, residents often pop into the city for some fine dining, shopping, nightlife, and events.

Things to Do

Like many spots in this section of South Carolina, the top of the list is always the beach, the marshes, and the marina. Isle of Palms is no different: many residents spend their days near the water, either on the sand at Front Beach, in a boat, or in a kayak exploring the waterways on the wetland side. Many boat-owners who dock at the Isle of Palms Marina head out for sunset cruises or to spot the dolphins just offshore. There’s also the ability to rent boats, kayaks, and stand-up paddleboards from the marina for those who don’t own them.

Golf is an incredibly popular pastime as well, and Isle of Palms is home to the famous Wild Dunes Resort, which has won “Best In State” by Golf Digest many times over and has two courses designed by Tom Fazio. The resort occupies 1,600 acres at the north end of the island and offers accommodations ranging from standard hotel rooms to cottage rentals for out-of-town guests.
