TIPS FORWATCHING FIREWORKS ON IOP • Arrive early in the day to find the best parking. • Parking is available for a fee at the Isle of Palms County Park, municipal parking lots and metered parking on Ocean Boulevard between 10th and 14th Avenues. • Parking is free on the public right-of-way in designated “beach parking” zones. • Sit far from the water because the tide will be rising all afternoon and evening. • At 6:30 p.m., the area of the beach between 21st Avenue and 3rd Sea Cabins will close for setup and firework preparation, so camp out beyond these points. • Take plenty of sunscreen, a beach umbrella, beach chairs and a cooler of water. • Restrooms are at the front beach area and at the County Park. • Individual launches of fireworks are not allowed. • Alcohol is not permitted on the beach. • Pick up your trash. • When leaving, be prepared to spend an hour in traffic. • Have fun!
