Relax and Let A Fort Moultrie Sunset Take You To Another Place
Some sunsets are memorable.
Some take your breath away
Some just take you to another place. A nirvana of peace and tranquility where life is left behind and you are in the most safe haven on Earth. There are a few places on this Earth that truly take you away and allow you to leave the world behind for just a few minutes while the greatest IMAX in the world takes control of your senses.
Fort Moultrie Beach, hidden just down a dirt road right past the fort is a secluded oceanic paradise where dolphins frolic, ocean life thrives and the sun sets between Sullivan’s and the Cooper River Bridge with precision accuracy. It is an experience best shared with loved ones.
Come with us as we take you on this photographic journey taken over several Fort Moultrie Beach sunsets. Let yourself be free in indulge in one of Charleston’s greatest gifts.
Rich blend of colors in the sky with scattered clouds to compliment
Local enjoying the sunlight breaking through the clouds
Blessed with our own version of Stonehenge
The clouds in black and white have a ghostly eeriness
The sun’s center core dropping from the sky behind the row of Palmetto
Even without color, the view is spectacular
Barge perfectly situated in the water just under the setting sun
Heavenly light shines through the clouds
The string of clouds and the symmetry in the sky is perfect
A stepping platform of rocks take us far out to the ocean all the way to the setting sun
Take this recommendation to heart, these pictures are memorable and precious, but do not do justice to the feeling of a cool ocean breeze as you watch the sun set to the West and rest for the evening. If you are lucky, a few friendly dolphins will swim by and say hello.
How do you get to Ft. Moultrie beach? Is it down station 12?
As you enter Sullivan’s Island, go right and take the road about 2 miles until you get to the Fort. Just past Fort Moultrie on the left is a dirt road with a small parking lot. The viewing area and beach are right there.
