There wasn't a lot to actually do beyond boating, but the breeze, the shade, and the views were all very nice.

Great spot to look at the ocean, host an oyster roast, or use the bathroom. Very pretty.read more

There is another park on the other side, but it has a playground and kids. I did not feel up to that today. The park also has a historical marker and you know how I love historical markers, even ones from the Confederacy. This one reads, "Known for acts of bravery and outstanding leadership in the defense of Beaufort. This Memorial is erected by the Stephen Elliot Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy opposite the home in which this chapter was organized." The marker was erected in 1968 by Stephen Elliott United Daughters of the Confederacy. The home is nearby. [Review 19479 overall - 1051 in South Carolina - 449 of 2023.]

I really liked being able to visit the Stephen Elliott Park / Cannon Park in Beaufort. It is very…read morepeaceful and has great views of the water and the bridge. There is a nice fountain and cannons in the park and places to sit down and enjoy a nice quiet moment. You can feel all of the history and all of the years and centuries around you everywhere. I enjoyed being able to come here and enjoy the best of what Beaufort has to offer in a calm and relaxed manner. I recommend this park for a quick visit.

It's absolutely astounding to see in the spring when birds are in their mating plumage and then later, sitting on nests. When the hatchlings emerge, cuteness abounds!

If you get there early, you can snag a good parking spot, if not, you may have to walk a bit. There are also changing/wash stations and bathrooms, but take note where they are because it might be far. This is another one of my favorite beaches during off season, but will venture here during peak season too since it's lovely.

Beautiful beach, its quiet and clean. There weren't a lot of people, and the feeling was serene.read more

The entrance I used is on Sawmill Creek road, with a parking area enough for 15 or so cars. The walking path, or hiking trail is a natural base and easy to walk. It's a good car width wide. Hiking is not permitted during the hunting season of Oct. to Dec. The path is supposedly 4 miles, but I did not walk the full amount. It's a good walking area through tall pines, with many saw palmettos along the way. Lots of birds moving about, I saw mostly cardinals. I enjoyed the walk during Feb with 60 degree temperature, so I imagine it gets much hotter during summer. Open dawn to dusk, it's a worthy natural area to get out and walk. I would return here to walk it again.
