Perfect family camping

Caper's Island is a boat-in beach/camping area located on the Intracoastal Waterway just outside Charleston, SC. It is no frills, pack it in, pack it out camping with no amenities beyond what you bring with you. My family camped with another family with a total of 8 people and 2 dogs. After we set up our campsite, we went on a long walk down the boneyard beach for firewood and sea shell hunting( tons of conch shells and sand dollars). We all had an awesome time and plan to camp on Caper's Island again soon!
