About Beaufort

Beaufort, located on Port Royal Island, is one of the largest Sea Islands along the southeastern coast of the United States. It holds the distinction of being one of the few American towns where the entire downtown area has earned the prestigious title of a historic district by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Brimming with grand mansions constructed by affluent plantation owners before the Civil War, Beaufort's unique history unfolds as it was spared destruction and instead chosen for occupation by Union troops. Over 50 historical structures grace Beaufort, including beautifully restored private homes that can be explored through professionally guided walking, bus, or horse-drawn carriage tours, and during special spring and fall events, the chance to tour private homes and gardens is extended to both locals and visitors. The town's downtown and uptown districts are adorned with art galleries, antique shops, modern boutiques, fine dining establishments, and casual eateries, while the mild climate invites outdoor dining and park enjoyment nearly year-round.

Nestled on Port Royal Island, Beaufort, South Carolina, exudes the charm of a coastal town celebrated for its rich heritage, enduring allure, and welcoming Southern ambiance. The historic district's cobblestone streets, antebellum architecture, and iconic moss-draped oak trees encapsulate the quintessential Southern experience, and its prime location along the Beaufort River and Intracoastal Waterway offers stunning vistas and abundant opportunities for water-based activities. Enriched by a thriving arts scene, diverse culinary offerings, and a strong sense of community, Beaufort beckons history aficionados, nature enthusiasts, and those seeking a serene Lowcountry retreat.
