See all South Carolina articles South Carolina, a state in the southeastern United States. It extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Appalachians between North Carolina and Georgia and, with an area of 32,007 square miles (82,898 km 2), is the smallest of the Southern states. South Carolina is a land of considerable variety, stretching from sandy beaches and subtropical islands along the coast through vast pine forests and fields of tobacco and cotton to the hazy peaks of the Blue Ridge. One of the original 13 colonies, South Carolina is rich historically and has preserved much of its heritage while building a modern industrial society. Before the Civil War it played a major role in the affairs of the nation and was the most ardent defender of Southern rights. Reminders of those days survive in the old, restored sections of Charleston, in graceful antebellum mansions, and in battle sites such as Kings Mountain and Cowpens. Representing the new South Carolina are sprawling factories, numerous hydroelectric plants, and the bustling port of Charleston—all bringing increased prosperity after many decades of economic problems.

Get Oriented See the Sights Activities Around Town ... History Sorry, no specials found Visit Hunting Island State Park no events were found Beaufort SC Get Oriented Geography Beaufort South Carolina Geography Beaufort County has 587 square miles of islands, 64 large- and medium-sized islands and some 2,000 smaller ones that were formed over thousands of years. These islands, the product of waves, currents and storms, are in a constant state of slow change. Fresh waters from inland rivers meet the ocean here to form an estuarine network of tidal creeks and marshes so rich in nourishment that wildlife, birds and fish of incredible variety come here to feed and breed. St. Helena Sound to the north has four channels, but otherwise is a vast, shallow delta of ever-changing sandy shoals. To the south, the water is deep. The Broad River flows into Port Royal Sound, which lies between St. Helena and Parris Island on the Beaufort side and Hilton Head Island on the far side. Port Royal Sound is the second deepest natural port on the Eastern seaboard. It was the arrival of the Union Navy into Port Royal Sound that caused the citizens of Beaufort to flee the city in 1861, after which it became a Union medical center. Among the areas covered in the term "South of Broad" are Hilton Head, Bluffton, Daufuskie, Callawassie, Okatie and Sun City, which straddles Beaufort and Jasper counties. "North of Broad" includes Beaufort and Port Royal, St. Helena, Lady's Harbor, Fripp, Hunting, Cat, Cane, Distant, Lost, Dataw and Polowana Islands, Sheldon and parts of Yemassee.

SC Facts and Figures Geography, Climate, and Economy South Carolina Geography The state of South Carolina is roughly triangular in shape and is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, North Carolina, and Georgia. South Carolina includes portions of three major natural regions of the eastern United States: the Coastal Plain, the Piedmont Plateau, and the Blue Ridge Mountains. The Coastal Plain occupies about two-thirds of the state and rises gently to 500 feet from the Atlantic Ocean up to the Piedmont Plateau. Included in the Coastal Plain are the Sea Islands off the coast of South Carolina. The Piedmont is an upland area that rises gradually from 400 feet to 1200 feet along the northwestern edge. The Piedmont is separated from the Coastal Plain by a major fall line. The Blue Ridge Mountains, in the northwestern corner of South Carolina, meets the Piedmont. It is a mountainous and mainly forested region. The further east one moves, the flatter the land becomes in South Carolina. All of the major rivers in South Carolina flow generally southeastward across the state to the Atlantic Ocean. The three major rivers are the Santee, Great Pee Dee, and Savannah. There are no large natural lakes in South Carolina, but several have been created for hydroelectric power purposes. The three largest lakes are Lake Marion - 110,600 acres, Lake Moultrie - 60,400 acres, and Lake Murray - 50,000 acres.

South Carolina By Alphabet : Encyclopedia A-Z S South Carolina, U.S. Political Geography Related Category: U.S. Political Geography South Carolina is roughly triangular in shape. The long, even coast lined with beautiful sand beaches on the "Grand Strand" north of Georgetown becomes generally marshy to the south and is sliced by a network of rivers and creeks, creating a maze of inlets and the famous Sea Islands . The coastal climate is humid subtropical, with long, hot summers and short, mild winters. In this area are found cypress swamps, moss-hung oaks, beautiful flowering gardens, antebellum plantations, and the historic seaports of Georgetown, Beaufort, and Charleston, the latter a major tourist attraction and one of the chief ports of entry in the Southeast. The fall line on the state's Atlantic-bound rivers separates the coastal Low Country from the rolling Piedmont plateau of the Up Country and runs generally parallel to the coast, passing through Columbia. Inland the climate is temperate, becoming progressively cooler as the elevation increases. In the extreme northwest are the Blue Ridge Mts.; they occupy only c.500 sq mi (1,290 sq km) in the state, with Sassafras Mt. (3,560 ft/1,085 m) the highest point. Rainfall is abundant and well distributed throughout South Carolina. The Pee Dee, Santee, Edisto, and Savannah river systems drain the state, flowing from the highlands to the sea, creating rapids and waterfalls. This abundant source of hydroelectric power is one of South Carolina's most important natural resources. Several nuclear plants operate in the state as well.
