Description
"Beautiful Beaufort, South Carolina Scene" by Catherine Sherman.
The historic low country city of Beaufort, South Carolina, is especially beautiful in the spring when the azaleas are in bloom. Here, Spanish moss hangs from a magnolia tree over a shady sidewalk. A white clapboard house with a welcoming porch completes the quintessential Beaufort scene.
Chartered in 1711, Beaufort is the second oldest town in South Carolina after Charleston. Remnants of the original English colonial settlement of Beaufort can be found in the downtown or historic district area. 304 acres (1.23 km2) of the town have been designated a National Historic Landmark.
Beaufort is located on Port Royal Island, in the heart of the Sea Islands and South Carolina Lowcountry. The city is renowned for its scenic location and for maintaining a historic character by preservation of its antebellum architecture. The city is also known for its military establishments, being located in close proximity to Parris Island and a U.S. naval hospital, in addition to being home of the Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort.
