The lifestyle of Daufuskie Island, South Carolina, is perhaps best summed up by this picture of a Daufuskie resident enjoying his front porch. Not to be stirred from his intent concentration, he is busy solving the problems of the modern world, most of which never made it to Daufuskie. This quiet island hideaway is reachable only by boat, and if a bridge were ever to be built here (it won't) you'd have a hard time getting the locals to use it. Join us for a boat trip to Daufuskie Island and set your watch for island time. That means take off your watch.

There are several options for a visit to Daufuskie Island. We can get a close up view of the Haig Point Lighthouse and other sights from the boat. Landing options could include a journey to a remote beach or a trip to Marshside Mama's for dinner. Or, spend the better part of a day there and we can explore the island's notable historic sites by golf cart, perhaps the most common vehicle on Daufuskie.

Whatever the approach, expect to step back in time: Island Time.
