Full Moon Bonfire
Friday, August 28, 2026
Location: On the beach between BW 1 and 2
Sunset – 7:51 pm
Moonrise – 8:08 pm
High Tide – 7:11 pm
Sturgeon Moon
Join us on the beach for Seabrook Island’s Full Moon bonfire on Friday, August 28, 2026.
The August full moon is called the Sturgeon Moon, named after the large sturgeon fish that were historically abundant in the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain during late summer.
This is the last full moon of summer. It offers a spectacular opportunity to observe both a full moon and a partial lunar eclipse!
Come enjoy a pleasant evening with a bonfire on the beach with friends and neighbors. Visit with existing friends and meet someone new. There’s always plenty of room on the beach for everyone, so invite a friend, bring your houseguests.
To keep things simple, each person brings what they want: a stick of firewood for a big bonfire, chairs, food, drinks. Nothing will be provided but a beautiful beach, a bonfire, and a full moon.
Hopefully, the weather will be perfect for the evening. People ask if the bonfire will be held if it’s rainy. The bonfire will be canceled if it is raining or rain is threatening, as few would be comfortable attending.
By terms of the permit, the fire needs to be out no later than 10:00 pm. The later sunset and moonrise times give us time for dinner before gathering on the beach.
Put the next date for the Full Moon Bonfire on your calendar:

King Tide is a commonly used term describing high tides that are higher than normal. They usually occur during a full or new moon or during specific seasons throughout the year. Charleston’s average high tide range is about 5.5 ft., but during a king tide event, it can reach 7 ft. or higher.
King Tides can cause flooding in low-lying areas, resulting in road closures on Seabrook Island, as well as the Johns Island and Charleston areas. This is particularly true when a king tide coincides with significant rain and/or wind.
The next dates of the predicted King Tides are August 11-12.
