Top Things to Do on Fripp Island in December

Enjoy the Great Outdoors

With uncrowded shorelines and beautiful weather, winter is one of the best times for a Fripp Island vacation. Many of our first-time guests ask us if you can swim in Fripp Island in December. The average temperatures range from the low 40s to mid-60s during this time of year, which is a bit too chilly for swimming. However, the weather is perfect for strolling the shoreline, golfing, fishing, or simply enjoying the sunshine!

  • Annual Santa Scramble | For some unique Christmas-themed fun, join us at the Ocean Creek Golf Course for the Annual Santa Scramble! The scramble follows a four-person gross powerball format on an executive-style course setup. To add more festive fun, we encourage all participants and attendees to wear their favorite ugly Christmas sweater! For just a $15 entry fee, you'll get drinks, beer, coffee, donuts, and prizes. The best part? The tournament's proceeds are used to make a donation to a charitable organization.
