Boasting more than 80,000 acres of protected land, South Carolina is home to some of the most beautiful parks in the country. The state is best known for the beaches and marshes of its coastline, but it has a wide variety of other terrain to offer as well, including towering mountains, beautiful forests criss-crossed by streams and rivers, and even sand dunes.
