Bluffton and the surrounding area is in wthe midst of a Subtropical Coastal Atlantic climate belt. The nearby ocean moderates temperature swings throughout the year but allows for moderate seasonal climate changes. Prevailing winds off the ocean act as a cooling agent during the warm summer months and in the winter, breezes off of the warm Gulf Stream moderate colder temperatures.

Golf is played year round, as is tennis and other outdoor pursuits. The local May River, Port Royal Sound and Atlantic Ocean are all within reach to explore by boat, kayak or guided tour. The area provides a unique blend of unspoiled natural beauty and environmentally sensitive design-complemented by world class resorts, amenities and activities.

Conveniently located, the Savannah Hilton Head Airport is 35 minutes away as is Historic Beaufort and the famous River Street in Savannah. The beauty of the South Carolina lowcountry with it's magnificent moss-draped live oaks, rivers and tidal marshes has been the home to over twenty films including Forrest Gump, The Big Chill, Prince of Tides and The Great Santini to name a few.
