South Carolina Salt Marsh
Watch the sunset from Kiawah Beachwalker Park, Kiawah Island, South Carolina. Kiawah is a golf-centered resort island with lots of palmettos, pine trees, and waterbirds. The dolphins practice "strand feeding" here, which is the act of herding the fish up on the beach along with a wave and wriggling up on the sand to retrieve them. #UStravel #travel #naturelovers #beach #sunset #Kiawah #SouthCarolina #RVlife #earthporn #goldenhour #camping #glamping #wanderlust #beachbound www.RVLuckyOrWhat.com

Parking was a little hectic the night we arrived, but our bell-man, Harrison, took such great care of us, we quickly forgot about it. He’s a gem. Room was very beachy with a phenomenal view. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. Overall, a very nice stay in Folly Beach.
