🌊 Welcome to the Palmetto & Birch Journal
Stories from the Carolina Coast
The Palmetto & Birch Journal is where our love for coastal living comes to life — a place to share the hidden gems, local experiences, and everyday magic that make Garden City Beach and the South Carolina coast so special.
From oceanfront mornings sipping coffee on an oceanfront balcony watching the dolphins swim by, to evenings by the fire with the sound of waves in the background, this space celebrates everything that makes a beach getaway unforgettable.
Whether you’re dreaming of your next Garden City Beach or Surfside Beach rental, planning a family vacation, or just craving a bit of salt air and inspiration, you’ll find it here.
