For anyone interested in taking a look back at one of South Carolina's most historical little towns, Bluffton is an interesting community. It offers a look at old South Carolina including a view of antebellum homes and many unique artsy and innovatinve shops. Located just across the bridge from Hilton Head, Bluffton is now one of the fastest growing areas in the entire United States.

Located on a scenic bluff that overlooks the May River, Bluffton was originally an important distribution center that provided the avenue to ship products all over the southeast. The beginnings of Bluffton trace back almost 150 years. In the 18th and 19th centuries, wealthy cotton and rice planters brought their families to the bluffs of the May River to escape the oppressive summer heat from their inland homes.

After Bluffton recovered from its Civil War losses, it grew to become a vibrant community along the coast. The homes and churches in Bluffton offer a authentic look back at life in the 1800's for visitors. If you're planning a visit to the Bluffton-Hilton Head area of South Carolina, you'll want to get a walking map that is available at local merchants. You'll spend an enjoyable day meandering through Old Bluffton and after that, you'll surely be hooked on the home town atmosphere of Bluffton.
