Folly Beach Tide Reports

Understanding the tides is essential for planning activities such as surfing, fishing, and beachcombing. Folly Beach experiences two high tides and two low tides each day, with variations influenced by the lunar cycle and weather conditions. High tides can reach up to 6.5 feet, while low tides may drop to around 0.3 feet. These fluctuations can affect beach width and water depth, so it’s important to consult the Folly Beach Tide Chart before heading out.

During high tide, the water reaches further up the shore, which is ideal for swimming and boating. Low tide exposes more of the beach, creating opportunities for shell collecting and exploring tidal pools. Anglers often find that fishing conditions vary with the tides, so timing your outings accordingly can enhance your success.

Stay informed about the tides to make the most of your visit to Folly Beach.
