Natural Wonders of Fripp Island
Fripp Island is designated as a Wildlife Sanctuary, making Fripp the perfect place to observe several different species up close and personal. Deer freely roam the island, so don’t be surprised if you find them grazing in your yard! Being a wildlife preserve, Fripp Island is also home to a number of species of birds: White Ibis, Great Egrets, Oystercatchers, Screech Owls, Painted Buntings, and Great Blue Herons to name a few.
Fripp Island also plays host to the Loggerhead Sea Turtle. Gigantic female turtles can be spotted on the beach, and you can watch the baby sea turtles hatch!

It’s baby season! Did you know that most fawns on Fripp are born between April and July of each year? Don’t be surprised if you see a little one hunkered down on your lawn or near your home by itself for hours at a time. Mom is not too far away and will come back to feed it later in the evening, usually around dusk. If you suspect a little one is trouble, just call Fripp Island Security at 843-838-2334. They will send a wildlife specialist to assess. #frippisland #frippislandsc #fawn #frippislanddeer #beaufort #seaisland #deer #wildlife #nature #frippinit
