From making New York Time’s Top 52 Places to visit in the World to Southern Living’s Best Small Town in the South, Beaufort, SC touts many accolades for its charm, beauty, hospitality, and adventure.
We’re thrilled to announce our latest accolade from Travel & Leisure as one of 11 Best Small Towns in America.
“Hilton Head Island and Charleston might get all the acclaim when it comes to South Carolina Lowcountry destinations, but the state has plenty of small towns also worth visiting. Stroll through downtown Beaufort (with a sweet tea in hand), walk along the beach at nearby Hunting Island State Park, and try some fresh seafood at a local restaurant. Learn about the area’s history and about Gullah culture with a visit to the recently established Reconstruction Era National Historical Park and the Penn Center.” – Elizabeth Rhodes, Travel & Leisure
