The Isle of Palms is a great overall beach to visit. Good sand, good food, great lodging, and close to the city of Charleston. The off season is perfect for those who want to avoid the crowds. Just be cautious that the local police will strictly enforce all the laws.

agreed... if you wanna party (drink) and lay back with some buddies or meet some girls, then Folly is the place to go... it's more so the young and hip kinda place... but along with it being the place to meet chicks and drink and all... it comes with all the CRAP that goes along with it.... it's always dirty from drunks leavin stuff everwhere to cigarrette butts everywhere and ******* actin a fool of themselves.... on the flip side it is supposed to be some of THE top surfin on the East coast....
My daughter goes to College of Charleston, and my girlfriend and I spent a week at Folly Beach this summer. It was superb! We had a house on the beach, and it was one of the best vacations I've ever had. No crowds, and lots of fun!

myrtle beach = very tourist oriented. very commercialized
murrels inlet = lots of fishing
georgetown = (never been but told) lots of history and fishing

I can back that up.I have been to all those places.North Myrtle isn't as big of a tourist trap.They're trying to get rid of all the bike rallies and other big events.
