In January 2007, we traveled to a graduation at Parris Island. We left earlier to see the sights and explore the beaches and outlet malls. The graduation was awesome. If you have never been to a military graduation, I hope some day you have the chance. It is the most honorary graduation a person could ever experience. The town was nice and ...

Heaven on Earth
By kcfowl, 04/17/06
Beaufort is Heaven on earth. From the people to the buildings to the landscaping to the food to the sights to see. No one will be disappointed when you visit this town. I would move there in a minute. It can get a little pricey but you are on vacation and it is well worth it. I have gone back at least 4 times and will continue to go back as often ...

A military town
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/14/06
Beaufort is a nice little military (Marine Corp) town, but it is expensive and doesn't offer much except for a few historical sites and houses. The restaurants, motels, etc. are over priced and they don't have a decent beach or much entertainment. Many motels raise their prices on weekends. The shopping is typical "tourist" fare. Hilton Head is a better place to stay.

What a pleasant surprise
By Theresa K, 01/22/06
I loved the old town feel of this area. It is definitely transforms the soul. I traveled for a retreat with the Gullah Geechie nation. Queen Quet is a gracious host. I learned so much about my history. I hope that she can keep St Helena uncommercialized so future generations can enjoy this exquisite land in America. If you travel to this area the ...

locals

It's great if you are just there for a quick visit but the locals ran us off. I have never been to a more rude place. But it is beautiful!

Think Beaufort!
By annejv, 10/01/05
Beaufort is somewhat off the beaten path, but it is on the water. It has a historic downtown with great bars and restaurants that have terraces from which you can look at the water. For golfers, well, golf courses are everywhere. It offers all the amenities for boating, kayaking and fishing. It's a small town, with some of the inconveniences of small places, but it definitely is one of my favorites.

Beaufort Paradise
By ginnybean, 09/23/05
Beaufort is like a small Charleston, SC with a wonderful relaxed feeling. Everything runs on "beach time" which means you never have to feel rushed. The gorgeous views and historic buildings always leave me breathless.
The only thing not great would be the humidity and bugs, but hey, it's the south. What else would you expect? Bring along some sunscreen, wear light clothes, and put on plenty of bug spray.

Now I know why the stars hide out there
By sleep4512002, 07/31/05
Beaufort is a magnificient antebellum southern town. It is like stepping back into the early 19th century, but with air conditioning :-) It does not have the fast pace of Charleston, but offers wonderful shopping, oceanfront, resturants (GO to the Beaufort Inn -- a 4 star resturant..and the Dockside Resturant in Port Royal), and friendly people. I ...

Tons of Summer Fun!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 06/14/05
We visited Beaufort about two years ago and had the most wonderful time during the Water Festival. I was never bored and it is really a beautiful little town.
