SC Beaches-- Myrtle, Edisto, and more!
SC beaches are hoppin' especially in the summer! If you're driving down to our coast, check out some of my recommendations. The great thing about our beaches is they are all pretty close together--so you can pretty much drive to anything your heart...
It's not worth it! Trust me, you'll get a cloud burn here! Make sure to put on plenty of sunscreen... at the bare minimum, 10-15 sph. I layer my kids up with this SunBum SPF 70.
Love laying down on your stomach but also want to read your book or just not smash your face.... this is the chair for you! And I looooooove the teal color!
Like laying on the sand but not have the sand on you? Try this!! Great for tanning... ya know, if you aren't like me and chasing kids around!
Listen, I never thought I would like microfiber towels. And they aren't my favorite for things like the shower or a spa day....but for the beach? They take up soooo much less room in your beach bag and they dry in a fraction of the time of regular ...
This is FANTASTIC! Not just for mom, but for a quick application to kids too. This is a lot easier to put on their faces too instead of lotion. Less squirming!
Great my skin and doesn't break me out. Which is huge when it comes to sunblock. If I'm not wearing a hat or a visor I always put extra on my nose... it always gets burnt!
If you are within driving distance to Crabby Mikes, and you're looking for a buffet with all you can eat crab legs...this is the place. I'm telling you, there is NOT a better buffet around...and that's from someone who isn't a fan of buffets at all....
I am obsessed with this place. If you are within an hour--it's worth the drive! Plus, Calabash is a very cute little town! This ice cream is amazing and it's all homemade--no box stuff here. And they have sooo many flavors. Ever had cantaloupe i...
If you don't like how low most beach chairs are, then try this one. It sits up higher and if you have problem getting out of normal beach chairs, this one might be easier on you.
Our beaches are HOT and they don't have many concessions. A solid cooler that'll keep drinks cold is a non-negotiable. RTIC is just as good as some of the more expensive brands!
Family vacation but you still want a date night? No one to watch the kids ? Check out Care.com and see if there's a babysitter local to you. They're vetted and background checked!
Ever heard of InterContinental Hotels and Resorts?! Me neither! See if they have a hotel at the beach you want to travel and feel safe knowing you've got a great deal and a well reviewed place to stay.
Something you need fixed at the house while you're gone? Check these guys out. Again...vetted and background checked! Don't get stuck with the dude on facebook marketplace :-/
One of the best pieces of advice I can give you is to Instacart your groceries at the closet grocery store to your hotel/condo/beach house. The grocery stores are sooo crowded, especially during the months of May-August. This will save you a ton of...
If you are coming to Ocean Lakes around Halloween, they have the BEST Halloween celebrations. There's literally a parade of golf carts just about every night and trick or treating? Guarantee your kids have never trick or treated like this! It's so...
I know it says campground, but it's NOT just for campers! They also have houses/condos on the premise. It's a super fun place to stay. But please don't let your teenagers run the golf carts at night. Let's be cool and follow the rules--that way e...
See...told you! OceanLakes isn't just for campers!
