Huntington Beach State Park in South Carolina is one of my favorite places. With plenty to see and do right in the park as well as the access to fresh shrimp, well, what more might a person want from a beach vacation?
We set up camp at site number 115. One of the nicest sites within the campground. It is located further from the beach access but your reward is a site that has more room than most and not much foot traffic around you.
Plenty of room for Tabatha and as well as a tent. The ground is level. Our only issue with the site is that after day two the ants found us.
The park is packed full of wildlife. Birds, alligators, deer, and salamanders were abundant.
Within the park is Atalaya. It is the former home of Anna Hyatt and Archer Huntington. The home is a short bike ride or a nice little walk from the campground. For a donation of a couple of bucks you are able to tour the home all day. The home also makes for a nice backdrop for photos. Brookgreen Gardens is across the street from the park and is also worth exploring.
With its clean beaches, nice restrooms, wifi, wildlife and proximity to many activities it is a camping adventure that we will do again.
Overall, I rate this a 5 star beach camping trip
