Things To Do
Hunting Island State Park Beach
We love spending time at Hunting Island searching for sharks teeth. The sunrises are to die for! You can always find a variety of wildlife and there's an old light house to explore. Part of the movie Forrest Gump was filmed here. There is a small fee to enter the state park, but it's worth it!
Barefoot Bubba's
This fun shop is a must stop! It's a fun vibrant place to get your souvenirs and bonus! they have a cute little ice cream shop. My favorite part is the paddle board and kayak rentals (and bikes for land lovers). They will drop them off and pick them up for you. You can explore the surrounding area, just be sure to watch the tide!
Savannah
Dalton took Lacy on their first “real date” in Savannah, GA. It’s a short drive from Port Royal with so many things to do! Check out all the history, explore the many cemeteries, or visit all the shops along the Savannah River.
Cypress Wetlands
This is a fun nature trail Dalton and Lacy walked many times. Enjoy all the wildlife, but stay on the path because there might be an alligator or two! It's right in the middle of town so you can grab a bite to eat or check out the local shops and museum.
Port Royal Boardwalk and Observation Deck
The first time Lacy visited Jessica in Port Royal this was their first stop. It's best at sunset, but fun anytime of the day. Be ready to climb some stairs to the top and keep your eyes peeled for jumping dolphins.
Downtown Beaufort
Dalton and Lacy frequented downtown Beaufort during all of Lacy's visits. There are so many cute stores to explore, restaurants, ice cream shops, and coffee shops. Don't miss out on Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park right off of downtown. There is a playground for the kiddos, swings right off the water, and you can see lots of boats sail by.
Fort Frederick Cultural Heritage Preserve
This is a fun historical site right down the road from our wedding venue. It’s quiet and quaint and right in the water.
Fishcamp on 11th Street
Great restaurant right on the water. We love going here to have a drink or 2 on the patio. It's right next door to Shellring Aleworks Brewery, the wedding venue.
Madison's
Madison's is a must eat restaurant! One of our favorites. Be sure to try the Crab and Artichoke dip with house made chips. They make a great burger with Pimento cheese.
Breakwater Restaurant & Bar
We ate here during wedding planning and were very impressed! It’s a little on the pricey side but we’ll worth it. Some of our favorites include Tuna Tartar (Dalton obviously), Buttermilk Fried Chicken (Lacy), and Potato Gnocchi. They have an impressive wine menu as well as delicious cocktails.
