Morris Island Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Morris Island is a hidden beach near Folly Beach, South Carolina. I love it. no tourist, the dolphins swim right next to the shore line at low tide. This beach has a lot of old sun bleached trees called the bone yard perfect for hanging a hammock. If you are ever in Folly, SC just ask the locals how to get to Morris Island Light House, as you walk up over the dudes it all becomes clear why it's a well kept secret.

The Morris Island lighthouse stands alone approximately 300 yards off shore from the Island of Folly Beach. #roadtrip

Everything was great, very nice and comfortable room. Great amenities, and friendly team. Would definitiley stay again, but we would ask for a room with a better view. The room was cave like because we face a wall and overlooked the driveway to the parking.
