The 4,053 acre refuge includes Pinckney Island, Corn Island, Big and Little Harry Islands, Buzzard Island and numerous small hammocks. Pinckney is the largest of the islands and the only one open to public use. Nearly 67% of the refuge consists of salt marsh and tidal creeks.

Beaufort is a city on Port Royal Island, one of South Carolina’s coastal Sea Islands. It’s known for its antebellum mansions, especially in the downtown historic district. On Bay Street you can peruse through dozens of locally owned boutiques, antique shops, art galleries, and jewelry shops that reside in renovated 19th century storefronts. From there, alleyways promise exquisite cuisine and even more shopping adventures.
