Review:

The charming city of Beaufort can be found on Port Royal Island, one of the biggest Sea Islands off the coast of South Carolina, and it boasts excellent restaurants, unique art galleries, and a rich history. The entire downtown core has been designated a National Historic Landmark District, and the streets are lined with moss-draped oak trees and gorgeous antebellum mansions built before the Civil War.

Visitors are welcome to stroll through the streets on their own, but the best ways to get a feel for the area are to join a professionally guided walking tour or to hop in an elegant horse-drawn carriage.
