Fripp Island Resort is a private club located on quiet, picturesque Fripp Island along the coast of South Carolina. With nearly 3.5 miles of pristine beach, Fripp Island is truly an island oasis where you can get away from it all. Unlike a traditional resort, Fripp Island Resort provides shopping and dining options as well as sports and leisure activities at venues throughout the island. Because the resort is private, guests must purchase a

Did you hear the exciting news? We have a new species of dolphin in the estuaries of South Carolina!
The small estuarine dolphins that we often see on our tours have been reclassified as the Tamanend`s Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops erebennus)! These dolphins were often described as the Atlantic bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) but with different morphological features that made them more adept for living in the smaller estuary creeks and nearshore waters.
Scientists discovered through DNA testing and morphological studies that these estuarine dolphins were actually more similar to dolphins found in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean than their offshore counterparts.
According to NOAA, the new common name, "Tamanend," comes from the native American Chief Tamanend from the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribe who was known for his "wisdom and peaceful nature."
Join us on a dolphin tour to see these dolphins for yourself!

Anyone else have to cancel a vacation this summer?🌴
I was supposed to go to Aruba a few weeks ago, but my island dreams were stolen away by a certain virus that shall not be named.😷
But thanks to my friends the.book.drop I’ll soon be headed off to Fripp Island! I don’t even have to pack or buy a plane ticket! And we’re not staying at some overpriced resort, no sir. We’ve got The House on Fripp Island… cause we fancy.
A taut, page-turning novel of secrets and strife. When two families—one rich, one not—vacation together off the coast of South Carolina, little do they know that someone won`t be returning home.
It’s so easy to take a trip with the.book.drop a fun, easy, inexpensive, and indie bookstore supporting way to get a surprise book in the mail every month to take you away! Plus a few extra bookish goodies to go along with it!
And you can use my code BOOKAPOTAMUS to save 10% off a vacation, errrr… I mean, subscription!
Happy Sunday book friends!💛

Island Girl Jules Meets Author Kristin Harmel
Today I’ve got a special guest to feature on my Bookstagram - my mom island_girl_jules.
Mom is currently down in South Carolina at her second home on Fripp Island (or first home depending on when you ask her) and was able to snag a ticket to meet Kristin Harmel at The Pat Conroy Literary Center (Conroy, now deceased, was a resident of Fripp Island for many years).
Mom had this to say about the event: “What a fabulous day hearing Kristin Harmel speak. She talked about her research process and writing process for her newest book written during Covid. Really a fabulous afternoon.” She also called Harmel “cute as a button” - but let us focus on her literary prowess MOM.
I’ve read Harmel’s newest book (scroll back a few posts for my review) and I can’t wait to hear my mom’s thoughts about it when I go to visit her next week (traveling with my husband and ten week old - send any tips, haha!). So jealous she now has an autographed copy!
Have you had the pleasure of meeting any authors whose books you enjoy?

This photograph was captured several years ago during our first visit to Port Royal, South Carolina. It was an incredible trip, as we were blessed with a breathtaking sunset that surpassed even my wildest dreams. At that time, the docks were filled with numerous shrimp boats each evening, creating a picturesque scene. However, during our recent visit a few months ago, we were disheartened to find an absence of shrimp boats gracing the docks.
