The seagulls also are enjoying the warming sun
Family walk and so many questions for Dad
He is waiting for the next wave
The waves are rolling in to the shores
The pier at Folly BeachThis six-mile-long by half-mile-wide stretch of sandy beach sports condos, a fishing pier, and loads of history.
In the 1930s, the giant pier and pavilion (later destroyed by fire) rose to fame for billing such big-name acts as Tommy Dorsey, Artie Shaw, the Ink Spots, and Guy Lombardo. Gershwin fans may be interested to know that George and Ira composed "Porgy and Bess" while staying on the beach. Although fire wiped out most of the beach's historical structures, the area is still a popular draw for surfers, picnickers, anglers, and sunbathers, and it offers a pleasant retreat from harried site-seeing for the brain-tired traveler.
