Folly Beach Pier

Walk out over the Atlantic on Folly Beach Pier for surf views, birding, or fishing. The exposed pier is a clear destination on a beach outing.

Why go

The rebuilt pier reaches more than a thousand feet beyond the shoreline, changing the view from beach scene to open ocean. Walk toward the end to watch waves, shorebirds, and anglers, then return to the sand. It is a distinct stop from simply visiting Folly Beach.

What to look for

  • The deck reaches more than a thousand feet into the Atlantic.
  • Walkers can look back at Folly Beach from the rail.
  • Birds and anglers share the pier’s ocean edge.

Useful to know

  • Fishing is prohibited after sunset under county pier rules.
  • Plan for sun and wind on the exposed deck; pair the pier with time on the nearby beach.
