Daufuskie Island is located between Savannah and Hilton Head Island and is the southernmost inhabited South Carolina Sea Island.
It covers only about 8 square miles but it has 3 miles of beachfront. It has very few paved roads and its ancient oaks give it a timeless feel of a place lost in the past.
It is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, Calibogue Sound, and the Intracoastal Waterway. Daufuskie Island is only accessible by ferry or boat, and has a population of only about 400 people.
The island offers a fascinating cultural experience with old Gullah houses, environmental preserves, art galleries, and private communities.
The entire island has been declared a Historic District. The northeast part of the island is the private residential club Haig Point Club.
The western part is unincorporated land. Haig Point is a great place to stay, offering a choice of vacation activities and dining options.
