In South Carolina, winter months bring a variety of oceangoing birds that can be hard to find during other times of year. The Folly Beach Pier extends over 1,000 feet out over the ocean, an amazing vantage point for spotting sea ducks, seabirds, loons, grebes, and more that overwinter on the Atlantic. Bring your binoculars and join our experts as we look for the tell-tale shapes and flight patterns of species such as Black Scoter, Northern Gannet, Red-throated Loon, Horned Grebe, and much more.
