A Guide to Seabrook Island Beaches

Our Beaches

Seabrook Island lays claim to one of the widest, longest, and most dynamic beach shorelines in the Coastal Carolinas! There are miles of pristine and peaceful sandy locales for you to explore.

North Beach is the first place light touches at dawn on Seabrook. It begins with an overture of rolling dunes held in place by sea oats and wax myrtles. The sheer size of North Beach makes it a dynamic part of the island. Wildlife is abundant here, and the soft sand is the perfect place to take everything in and watch for our resident dolphin pod.

Pelican Beach, also known as Sunset Beach, is very peaceful and is a perfect choice for young children to swim in the gentle waves and slow currents of the Edisto River as it meets the Atlantic Ocean.

The Sands at the Beach Club is where the action is! Head to the oceanfront pools, full-service bars, and restaurants to relax and enjoy the view. Here you can see both the sunrise and the sunset without ever leaving your chair. And you’ll have a full day of fun in between!
