Discover Folly Beach’s Oceanfront Oasis & Waterfront Dining at Blu

Few restaurants in Charleston offer oceanfront dining. None offer the unique experience you’ll find at BLU. In a city defined by water, BLU stands tall as one of the few restaurants with oceanfront dining. Perched at the “Edge of America” directly on Folly Beach, BLU combines spectacular views with a menu dominated by sustainable seafood, regional flavors and local ingredients. Enjoy local favorites and seasonal specialties in this full-service restaurant located within the Tides hotel on Folly Beach.

Tuesdays from 5:00 PM to close, we are opening up the cellar and offering 50% OFF bottles of wine!
