Where History Meets the Water
Beaufort is one of the South’s most charming coastal towns — a place where historic beauty and everyday life flow together along the river. Its downtown is lined with oak-shaded streets, colorful homes, and waterfront views that capture the heart of the Lowcountry.
A Town with Southern Soul
Founded in 1711, Beaufort is South Carolina’s second-oldest city and still carries the grace of its storied past. Yet today, it’s alive with energy — art galleries, sidewalk cafés, and friendly neighbors who greet you by name. The slower pace invites you to linger a little longer, whether you’re strolling through the historic district or catching a sunset over the marina.

From kayaking through tidal creeks to browsing local markets, Beaufort life revolves around its connection to nature and community. Residents enjoy a balance of coastal serenity and small-town spirit, with easy access to beaches, boutique shopping, and dining by the water. Each season brings new celebrations — from shrimp festivals to art walks — making every visit feel special.
