Hilton Head Island, Beaufort & Bluffton
Located along South Carolina's coast and bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, lie three vacation destinations well-worth the trip. Hilton Head's beaches and world-class golf, Beaufort's historic landmarks and shopping, Daufuskie Island's rich African American history, & Bluffton's ecclectic arts community and old town charm are all included in South Carolina's Treasured Coast.
Explore the areas of South Carolina's coast to begin your travel experience. Begin planning your trip at Beaufort's Visitor Center, find out what's on stage at the Arts Center of Coastal Carolina on Hilton Head Island, discover historic tours of Daufuskie Island, or learn about Old Town Bluffton.
The heritage of South Carolina’s Treasured Coast can be found in the buildings. Buildings such as the Penn Center that brought hope to those who needed it most, or Heyward House in Bluffton that was one of the few antebellum structures to escape being burned during a Union troop attack in 1863. Or in the way the Gullah people, descendants of African slaves, have kept, and continue to keep alive, a culture that traces back to a different time and continent. |

The Gullah Lifestyle
Famous for its miles of sandy beaches, world class golf courses, historical charm and delectable food, this Treasured Coast holds even more for those interested in the African American and Gullah culture and history.
By its very definition, heritage is a deeply personal, powerful force within a community. It is a link to those who have come before. A legacy to preserve and promote. A movement with a life of its own that infuses life into every corner of society.
