Haig Point, Daufuskie Island, SC
Life at the private community of Haig Point on Daufuskie, Island, SC, begins and ends with the water. In fact, the only way you can get there is by private ferry from Hilton Head Island, creating the ultimate getaway for vacation or retirement.
The waters surrounding Daufuskie Island include Calibogue Sound, the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. Thus, much of community activity centers on the water, whether it is sailing, boating, kayaking, fishing, crabbing (a Lowcountry tradition), waterskiing or just laying out on its 3.5 miles of beach.

Overall, the tranquility, abundant nature, family activities, and environmental stewardship that Haig Point is known for sets it apart from most other island resort communities.
