Things To Do
Hunting Island State Park
Though each State Park in South Carolina charms in its own way, Hunting Island State Park is likely the most beautiful. Boasting a beautiful beach, a historic lighthouse, a maritime forest, salt marshes, wildlife, fishing, swimming, camping, geocaching ... It is likely to thrill any visitors.
Camelot Farms Equestrian Center
We had a wonderful time riding horses on a trail leading to the beach from this beautiful farm right in Saint Helena Island where the reception will be held. We encourage to contact the farm and book a horseback ride while in Beaufort.
