Time to explore...
By Linda Lanier
Sometimes referred to as “the last true coastal village of the South,” the best way to get to know Bluffton is through its waterways. Much of life here revolves around the May River— you can’t leave town without swimming, boating, or having a fresh-caught seafood picnic along its shores.
Outdoor lovers will want to explore even further. Renting a kayak or canoe is a great way to explore Bluffton’s marshland. The views are spectacular, and you’re likely to spot bottlenose dolphins and seabirds on your paddle. There are also fishing and boat charters available, plus guided tours and family outings.
No matter the adventure you choose, soak up the fresh air, feel the sunshine on your face, and #LoveBlufftonSC!
