This may be the last small unknown coastal town on the east coast.

Then you will get a picture of this place. This place is so easy going that after 3 days here I felt as if I had been rested for a week. This town and it's surrounding beaches, state parks, golf courses, and shops offer a true feel of southern coastal Carolina. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6057941/f58fc899-7c50-43e6-99e7-bf81f9d2b618.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## Visit Historic Downtown Things to do Hotels Where to stay [Beaufort travel guide](https://expedia.co.uk/Beaufort.dx6057941) --- ### Popular places to visit ![Relaxing spot with nearby restaurants and shops.
