Fripp Island Vacation Rentals
Fripp Island is a hidden gem off the South Carolina coast. The island's white sand stretches for three and a half miles and there are plenty of activities and sites to see as you relax on your island getaway. A Fripp Island vacation rental is the perfect way to experience all that the island has to offer. While you're planning your trip, we hope you'll explore the information we have here as well as throughout our site. If you think of something we haven't touched on, please drop us a note.
Grab your flipflops and a few friends and get ready to start living on island time with your very own Fripp Island vacation rental.
Lights out for sea turtles 🌙🐢
Sea turtle season is one of the most special times on Fripp, and a few small actions can make a big difference for nesting moms and hatchlings. If you’re staying in a beachfront home, keep outdoor lighting to a minimum after dark so hatchlings can safely find their way to the ocean. Skip the flashlights and help keep the sand clear of holes, litter, chairs, and umbrellas from May through October.
Those tiny hatchlings follow the moonlight to the water—let’s help keep them headed in the right direction 💙
