Situated beside the banks of Winyah Bay lies the Tom Yawkey Wildlife Center Heritage Center. This 24,000-acre attraction is located on North Island which was once trekked through by early Spanish and French explorers. This wildlife center is a favorite nesting spot for hundreds of different animal species, including many endangered birds. It also has a large population of American Alligators and Loggerhead Sea Turtles. The area has a variety of hiking trails which will take you through marshes, wetlands, and forests. While here, you might also catch a glimpse of abandoned rice plantations or of the North Island Lighthouse.
