Kiawah's Award-Winning Beaches
Not all beaches are created equal. With a lush Lowcountry setting on an unspoiled barrier island, Kiawah Island beaches deliver natural beauty, recreation for all ages and boundless relaxation.
Kiawah’s 10-mile stretch of sandy shoreline ranks amongst the best in the world, earning numerous awards and honors, year after year, including Dr. Beach’s Top 10 Beaches in America.
Beach Recreation
Kiawah Island's perfectly packable sands invite you to find your high-energy fun or low-key relaxation along the shoreline—building sandcastles, playing games, ocean seining, beach combing, bike riding, sun bathing and so much more.
Water Activities
The Atlantic Ocean is just one body of water where you can find fun on Kiawah Island. Find your thrills with aquatic sports and recreational activities, including paddling rentals and tours, surf lessons, boogey boarding, skim boarding and more.
Wonderful Wildlife
While many species make Kiawah's maritime forest and salty marshlands their home, the island's beach and coastal waters are the natural habitat for many other marine and land animals, including Bottlenose dolphins, Loggerhead sea turtles and more.
