Beaufort
Charming homes and churches grace this old town on Port Royal Island. Come here on a day trip from Hilton Head, Savannah, or Charleston, or to spend a quiet weekend at a B&B while you shop and stroll through the historic district. Beaufort also continues to gain recognition as an art town, and supports a large number of galleries for its diminutive size.
More and more transplants have decided to spend the rest of their lives here, drawn to Beaufort's small-town charms. A truly Southern town, its picturesque backdrops have lured filmmakers here to shoot The Big Chill, The Prince of Tides, andThe GreatSantini, the last two being Hollywood adaptations of best-selling books by author Pat Conroy. Conroy has waxed poetic about the Lowcountry and calls the Beaufort area home.
