Hunting Island State Park is nestled among the small towns of South Carolina, just over the border from Savannah, GA.
The town of Beaufort is 20 short minutes away and offers great shopping and dining. The surrounding marshes are great for fishing and paddle boarding.
The real gem of this campground is it's beachfront property. Beautiful sands and a lighthouse to visit are fun for adults and kids of all ages.
Just a few tips....if you go in September and you're in the woodsy section - bring the bug spray. LOTS. The mosquitoes were a doozy.
Also, if you venture into town be sure you call ahead. Many of the restaurants aren't open on Sunday.
BONUS
If you're driving by Savannah stop at the Green Truck Pub on the way into town. We stopped on the way up AND the way back home.
I suggest the El Camino salad (no artery clogging, waste band extending and skin dulling cheese or sour cream) add their 100% mouth-watering veggie burger on top.
