Burkes Beach, Public beach in Hilton Head Island, United States
The sandy shoreline of Burkes Beach extends along the Atlantic coast, featuring natural dunes and native vegetation that supports local wildlife species.
The beach area transformed from private property to public access in the late 20th century, becoming an integral part of Hilton Head Island's coastal development.
Local residents gather at Burkes Beach for sunrise walks and evening activities, maintaining a strong connection to the island's outdoor lifestyle.
Visitors can access the beach through a pathway from Chaplin Community Park, which provides additional parking spaces and restroom facilities.
