Welcome to Edisto Island

Timeless in its beauty Edisto Beach is known for its natural and uncommercialized beauty. Located about 45 minutes south of Charleston, it truly is one of the few lightly developed beaches on the coast of South Carolina. Instead of traffic lights and chain stores you will find moss-covered oak trees, creeks, over 4 miles of sandy beaches and maybe a golf cart or two. It is the ideal place to come for fishing, observing wildlife and sunsets, collecting treasures from the sea, golfing and renewing relationships with family and friends. The picture-perfect place to create lasting memories.

 

Edisto Island is home to Botany Bay Wildlife Management Area, a 4,600 acre parcel along the coast that is a wonder to explore and see an area controlled by mother nature. Marshside homes, beach area, undeveloped lots and investment rental opportunities are the focus here.
