Fripp Island is the Beaufort area's premier oceanfront community. Located 19 miles due east of historic downtown Beaufort, SC, Fripp Island is a 3000-acre paradise which offers numerous opportunities to own and enjoy a primary or vacation home in a seaside community.
With 32 beach access points throughout the island, Fripp property owners and visitors alike are never more than a short golf cart ride away from the island's 3.5 miles of beach. Fripp beach goers enjoy some of the best sunrises and sunets in the Beaufort area.
Historic Downtown Beaufort is a relaxing 30-minute drive away. Fripp Island is a true wildlife preserve, and features an abundance of deer and wildlife. The island scenery is lush and beautiful, and has served as the filming backdrop for both Forrest Gump and Disney's The Jungle Book movies.
The 24-hour security gate offers peace of mind for visitors and homeowners. Fripp Island is a self-contained community, with endless amenities, including shops, restaurants, swimming pools, and children's playground. Visitors and homeowners can also rent golf carts, kayaks, boats, and mopeds.
The full-service marina offers dry dock storage, slip space, fuel, and easy access to area waterways. Boaters and fisherman can pick up all their provisions at the marina store. The Bonito Boathouse, located at the marina, offers fine waterfront dining.
The Fripp Island Club offers access to 10 swimming pools, including a lap pool at the center of the island, and an adults-only pool at the Cabana Club, which overlooks Skull Inlet and the Atlantic Ocean.
Golfers can take advantage of Fripp's two championship golf courses. Ocean Point overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, while Ocean Creek, Davis Love III's first signature course, is set amidst the marshes and creeks of Fripp Island.
Visitors and homeowners on Fripp have numerous dining opportunities, both on and off the island. In addition to Fripp Island's five full-service restaurants, there are convenient off-island dining options within minutes of the island, including Johnson Creek Tavern, with its stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean.
