Beaufort, S.C.

  • Beaufort is one of the oldest cities in S. C. A small town where everybody says "Hello". The ambiance is more serene.
  • The first thing we did was take a fascinating walking tour back in history with John Sharp. He was a hollywood actor who was shipwrecked in Beaufort. He was rescued by the Coast Guard and brought ashore by helicopter. He says he fell under the spell of Beaufort's natural beauty, her people and her history. The tour usually takes about 2 hours, the day we went it took 3 hours.
