Isle of Palms is a vibrant barrier island blending the energy of a bustling vacation destination with the charm of a year-round community. Known for its pristine beaches and family-friendly atmosphere, the island features a mix of luxurious vacation rentals, waterfront homes, and a strong local community. Wild Dunes, a gated resort community, offers world-class golf, tennis, and resort-style amenities, making it a standout feature of the island. While much of Isle of Palms caters to tourists, with restaurants, shops, and short-term rentals, the island also has neighborhoods with a close-knit, full-time residential vibe, offering a perfect balance of coastal living and resort appeal.
The Isle of Palms Marina is the go-to spot for boat rentals, charters, and water activities on the island. Located on the Intracoastal Waterway, it offers everything from fishing boats to pontoon rentals, making it easy to explore nearby islands, creeks, and waterways. The marina lifestyle on Isle of Palms is all about embracing the Lowcountry’s coastal charm—sun-soaked days spent fishing, dolphin watching, or cruising to waterfront restaurants. For locals and visitors alike, it’s a gateway to a relaxed, nautical way of life that perfectly complements the island’s laid-back vibe.
