Word on the street
What locals are saying
Thomson Park is a small, volunteer-maintained waterfront spot at the far end of Sullivan's Island that locals value for its peace and Revolutionary War history rather than typical beach amenities — swimming is prohibited due to dangerous currents at Breach Inlet, but fishing is popular and the benches offer genuinely scenic views. Reviewers consistently praise the well-kept interpretive panels and the quiet, uncrowded atmosphere as a respite from busier island beaches. It's modest by design: minimal parking and no facilities, but that's largely seen as part of its charm.
