U.S. News & World Report has ranked three Charleston area beaches among the best in the Palmetto State.

In its ranking of the 12 best South Carolina beaches, the publication chose Kiawah Island has having the state’s best beaches, and included Sullivan’s Island at No. 3, Folly Beach at No. 6, and Isle of Palms at No. 8.

“The closest you’ll come to paradise in South Carolina is Kiawah Island,” U.S. News wrote. “This private island features 10 miles of beautiful beaches backed by sand dunes, lush marshes and maritime forestry, translating to beach scenery that is simply unmatched. Most of the island’s beaches are privately owned, making them only accessible to property owners, guests and renters. However, Beachwalker County Park features a public stretch of sand with amenities like seasonal lifeguards and outdoor showers. Kiawah Island’s landscape also yields several scenic trails, waterfront golf courses and some pretty sweet digs thanks to the luxurious Kiawah Island Golf Resort.”
