"This is the most popular State Park in South Carolina, and for good reason. You've got five miles of supple white sand beaches , and plenty of room for remote walks, fishing from piers, and secluded picnics—everything's possible at this glorious Eastern edge of Beaufort County. Along with the sand, Hunting Island also has acres upon acres of protected marshes and wetlands that are ideal for bird and wildlife watching; take a walk down one of the nature trails to get close-ups of painted buntings and slim white egrets." - Paul Oswell
