Hunting Island, SC

Hunting Island, SC
August 2011










We had a beautiful day on Hunting Island.  We enjoyed a picnic lunch beside the lighthouse and then took a long, leisurely walk on the beach, toes in the sand and surf.  The ocean has caused much beach erosion to the island.  As a result of the erosion, many fallen palm trees line the edge of the beach and the lighthouse had to be relocated farther inland to protect it from the seas.  Protected turtle nests dot the beach and the number of shells to collect was endless.  Thanks Mom and Dad for a special day at the beach.
