Bluffton's May River & Outdoor Adventures
Discover Nature’s Hidden Treasures in Bluffton
Though you’re sure to find one-of-a-kind treasures tucked inside Bluffton’s antique shops and art galleries, spend some time outside to enjoy the area’s natural beauty. Located on the May River, the Lowcountry landscapes offer more than just a pretty view. A few ideas:
- Visit the Bluffton Oyster Factory at the bottom of Wharf Street. The last shucking and canning oyster factory on the East Coast is now a public park
- Take a kayak tour to learn more about Bluffton history
- Pack a picnic and enjoy a leisurely lunch on the riverfront
- Discover hidden gardens filled with camellias, magnolias and azaleas
- Take a bike ride along one of Bluffton’s many bike paths
- Walk down shaded Calhoun Street to the public dock and stop inside the Church of the Cross—one of the oldest remaining buildings on the waterfront, built in 1857.
