Nearly all year round, save for the trio of weeks in February when it's just too cold, outdoor dining on the patio is preferred by most visitors who like to bask in the sun in the winter and enjoy the breezy shade in the summer. But weather aside, it's the seafood that visitors flock to Folly Beach Crab Shack for — and with good reason!
