Parks & Recreation

Head to any of our parks or recreational facilities because we guarantee, whether it be to play basketball, enjoy the sunset, or take your dog on a walk, there's something for everyone.

The parks of folly beach

Our beautiful parks are fit for people of all ages. Some like the Timothy M. Goodwin Pirates Cove playground or Wave Watch Playground feature a children's playground, the perfect place to bring your little ones. Or if you're a paw-rent, we have the Folly Bark Park, with natural shade, water for the pups, pet waste bags, and receptacles for disposing of them. Our Muriel Edge Weathers Shadow Race Park, one of the city's most recently developed spaces, is a peaceful park great for bird watching, going on scenic walks, reading a book on the pergola benches, or just enjoying the serenity of nature.
