Cape Hatteras on the NC outer banks was named number 7 in the top ten best beach pics today. Cape Hatteras is known for the best board surfing on the US east coast and as a very good fishing spot. Beach Walker Park on Kiawah Island South Carolina also made the best beach list as number 10. Beach Walker Park is a public beach south of Charleston. Here you can play golf or tennis. Take tours of the island. Go sea kayaking or canoeing. Bird watch. It is also a good place to bike along the sea shore.

Gas prices and a slow economy kept me away from my annual vacation at the beach. I usually go to South Carolina beaches because they are closest to where I live. I did hear that gas was being rationed – limited to 10 gallons a car in South Carolina since Hurricane Ike. However, that is only rumor. I do know for a fact in North Carolina, gas stations are running out of gas and driving the price up. People are waiting in lines. Yet my son just got in from Clemson, SC and said they filled up in South Carolina with no problem and paid $3.60 a gallon for gas. So, if your traveling, you’d better fill up when you can just in case so you won’t get stranded along the highway without any gas. Anyway, I missed relaxing on the beach and playing in the ocean with my grandkids this year. Hope the economy gets better.

Beachwalker park, located on Kiawah Island South Carolina, was name number 10 in the list of best beaches in the USA today. The park is 21 miles south of Charleston SCon the South Carolina Lowcountry coast. Its a county park with lifeguards in the summer, dressing areas, outdoor showers, restrooms and picnic areas with grills. There also a convenience store and gas station nearby. This is a beautiful beach to spend the day. Hours are posted and vary season to season so its best to check when you arrive cause things change and thats why I dont post hours here. There is a fee for your vehicle.
