Hunting Island State Park Campground


At one of South Carolina's most visited parks, you can park your RV under pine trees or palm trees. Several sites have views of the beach. All sites are available by walk-up, but reservations are advisable in summer.

The campground was damaged by Hurricanes Matthew and Irma, so the former tent sites will not be reopening. Visitors are welcome to camp in tents on RV sites, however.
