 Accès

Fripp is a private, gated community. You need to either make friends with a surfer from Hunting Island, or paddle the 1/4 mile accross the channel between Hunting and Fripp. Not that hard, but the best waves are on the south end of the island; i.e. a LONG walk down the beach.

 Informations supplémentaires

Access is aweful. I made friends with a surfer on Hunting ISland, and that's how I got onto the Island. If you DO paddle the channel, do it at low tide, so you can be far down the river mouth, that way the gaurds can't see you. A boat would be sweet.
Watch out for the incoming tide; it happens quick. If you're hesitant in leaving the water, you'll be forced to shimmy-up the rock breakwall. Not fun.

Atmosphère

After living in SC for 4 years, I am 100% convinced that Fripp is THE best surf spot in SC. FAR better than Folley, Cat, etc., and NO crowds. Those who are out there are usually you're friends(they GOT you onto the island). Here's the gem; Fripp is the most south facing beach in SC. So a powerful winter North swell, which has Folley in a state of chaos, will be clean and lined-up to the horizon at Fripp.

It is deffinately worth the effort to get on the Island. Even if you end-up going commando style.

fripp is awsome - yeah I live at fripp too! Yeah I love#28 on the south side went yesterday... but just saying if anyone wants to go from hunting island go to the south side BUT NOT AT HIGH TIDE yes, I know high tide is the best time for surfing but the beach is flooded on hightide! so wear a tide watch or something.

prichards - there is also prichards island south of fipp where the surf is sometimes better witch is a long paddle from frip but it is somtimes worth it and that is the only way to get there besides a boat

beach entry 28 - if you want good surf on fripp you have to go down tarpon to beach entry 28. its near the jetties and the waves are always good. also, no one is there so you dont have to worry about people getting in your way.
