Bluffton, a town whose name refers to its location atop a scenic high bluff along the May River, is the mainland gateway to Hilton Head Island, the largest barrier island on the east coast between Long Island and the Bahamas.

As Hilton Head boasts of its 42 square miles of semi tropical, low country geography including 12 miles of broad, white sandy Atlantic Beach, Bluffton, literally located just across the bridge, attracts millions of visitors and residents alike in search of a relaxed lifestyle in the heart of the South Carolina Low Country.

Riddled among oak shaded streets, historic churches and antebellum homes offer a fascinating window into South Carolina's past while residential communities such as Sun City and Belfair, featuring lush verdant landscapes filled with homesites and golf courses, offer a small glimpse of what is on the horizon for Bluffton's future.
