Hunting Island Lighthouse

Hunting Island Lighthouse
16 miles east of Beaufort SC, lies Hunting island State Park and its Hunting island Tower. This tower warned boats away from shallow water and was used as a mapping point between Savannah and Charleston. This lighthouse stands tall at a demanding 132.5 feet.
This tower was specifically built for portability framed with long cast iron sections and bricks. Because of erosion, the lighthouse has been moved. In 1889 heavy beach erosion forced the lighthouse be moved 1.3 miles from its original location. Currently, the island faces heavy erosion that is greatly noticeable even in the last decade.
Along with the Lighthouse, Hunting Island also offers much more like wildlife photo opportunities, crabbing, great sunsets, beach rentals, campground, and much more. Most beach houses are reserved a year in advance.
The marshes here have been used in movies such as Forrest Gump and G.I.Jane.
