If you keep driving past Hunting Island [1] you’ll reach Fripp Island, one of South Carolina [2]’s private, developed barrier islands. Unlike its more egalitarian neighbor, Fripp only welcomes visitors who are guests of the Fripp Island Golf and Beach Resort (800/845-4100, www.frippislandresort.com [3]), which offers a range of lodging from oceanfront homes to villas to golf cottages.
Family-friendly recreation abounds, not only in 36 holes of high-caliber golf, but in over three miles of uncrowded beach. A major allure is Camp Fripp, providing activities for kids.
