11 Privileges South Carolinians Have That The Rest Of The U.S. Doesn’t
If you were born in South Carolina, then chances are you are very familiar with the privileges that come with living in the Palmetto State. We’re pretty lucky, that’s for sure! Regardless of what part of the state is home to you, the benefits of living here are amazing. Let’s take a look…
It's under four hours from the coast to the mountains. It's really the best of both worlds!
From the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains to the beautiful Jocassee Gorges, South Carolina's mountains are simply stunning.
From Rainbow Falls and a slew of other gorgeous waterfalls to mountain peaks and centuries-old trees, the Palmetto State is filled with natural beauty to admire.
The Palmetto State has more than 25 beaches on our 187 miles of coastline. How many can you name?
We have it mostly all to ourselves since tourists are so focused on our beach towns. Congaree National Park preserves the largest stand of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest in the entire U.S.
Whether it's over the water or the mountains, the start and end to each day is especially picturesque in South Carolina.
Take waterfalls, for example. Oconee County alone has more than 150 waterfalls!
Have you discovered the Pirate Ship cruise in Hilton Head (Pirates of Hilton Head)? During the cruise, the pirate ship goes under attack by a wayfairing seaman intent on taking over the scurvy vessel — and it's up to the (little) pirates to defend the crew and passengers!
We're so used to tourists that we welcome them with open arms... sometimes finding them standing in our own backyards.
With another one recently under our belt, we're glad to have the hype behind us once again... until next time.
If you're not comfortable sneaking a peak at it in the wild, then there are many places to see it in captivity, like the Edisto Island Serpentarium, seen here.
