“One of the most enjoyable aspects of traveling is getting to know the locals in the location that one is visiting. Of course, the more hospitable the locals are, the more fun it is likely that one will have while traveling there,” the article said.
The travel & tourism website made sure to note, โlocated only 90 miles from Charleston, this 300-year-old settlement is where locals may be seen relaxing on their front porches with sweet tea and enjoying neighborhood crab boils with friends and neighbors.โ
“Beaufort, South Carolina, is often cited as an example of Southern hospitality and as one of the nicest places in the United States.”
โBesides being the second-oldest settlement in the state, it is also home to several historic landmarks, beautiful antebellum buildings, a charming shoreline, and delectable local food.โ
In being named the friendliest, Beaufort was in some good company with 9 other beautiful towns accompanying it, including Key West FL, Savannah GA, Asheville NC, Charleston SC, Alexandria, VA, Tuscon AZ and Santa Fe, NM.
This isnโt really that much of a surprise. We know that Beaufort is a very friendly place where you will always find that special Southern hospitality.
The accolades really have been pouring in for Beaufort recently, and we couldnโt be more proud.
