Known for resort golf courses, Nurre and her five siblings know the island differently.

My family members have never reserved a tee time.

Now, it’s also the place that I share with my son and our dog.

Kiawah Island

While our lives change, the beach stays the same, she says.

It’s a comforting, beautiful place.

I hope this inspires both kids and adults to go out and embark on their own adventure.

Author as a child on Kiawah

This isnt just my story.

It’s a shared experience … one that I hope many other Kiawah-loving families can relate to as well.

I was motivated by my memories of the island as it was when I was a kid.
