Locals Guide to Sullivan’s IslandSullivan’s was once thought of as the quietest/family-oriented beach by those who live just across the bridge in Mount Pleasant. But that has changed! Lined with amazing restaurants and gorgeous homes, Sullivan’s Island has my vote for the best beach around! 🏖️ Authorssoldbysav

Things to Do

Sullivan's Island Beach
Such a relaxing beach to sunbathe, read, go for a walk, etc! Parking is free, but can be tricky if you go at peak times.

Sullivan's Island Lighthouse
You can view the lighthouse from the beach between stations 18 & 18 1/2. A very pretty place to be at sunset! 🌅

My favorite shop on SI. They have everything from coffee table books, children’s books, gifts, artwork, plants and even host workshops in their back room.

Where to Eat / Drink

The Co-Op Gourmet Sandwiches
The Co-Op isn’t just about Frosé and sandwiches, it’s about vibes. Pink, pop culture, & sarcasm all swirled together (if you follow the Co-Op on Instagram, you know what I’m talking about). They have masterfully positioned themselves as a local icon & must stop. Plus, the frosé is addicting (get a flight).

Home Team BBQ
Home Team is always crowded, but in a good way. Go here for nachos, bbq, beer or a Gamechanger.

The Obstinate Daughter
Pizza and coastal Italian at the beach, but elevated.

The Longboard
I had to figure out the correct way to go here. When I went for dinner, the meal didn’t feel cohesive and it was pricey. But for drinks + seafood apps + gorgeous interior, this is the spot. (Their sushi wraps are amaaazinggg). 🍣
