Kiawah Island is home to a variety of native birds. January is the perfect time to explore the island and view native birds. Yellow-Rumped Warblers are found throughout the island's maritime forests. Carolina Chickadees and Tufted Titmouse's flutter about in the brush throughout the winter months.
The beautifully colored Ruddy Turnstones scamper along the quiet, uncrowded shoreline along with the Western Sandpipers and the declining Red Knots (February). For a check list of all birds that frequent Kiawah Island throughout the year, click here.
Golf at the Ocean Course on Kiawah Island in January is a delight. Rates are the lowest of the year. The winds are typically light and the seasonal crowds are absent. Many days you may find the course wide open.
The beach is for the dogs in January. Residents and guests may walk their dogs off-leash during January. The beach is wide and open for throwing a ball or a quick romp in the surf. It is a great way to get outside for some exercise and sun.
