South Carolina

The Palmetto State contains all kinds of places for you and your family to have fun!

Divide your spare time between exploring state parks and mountains or golfing, swimming, and relaxing on beaches. On the east coast, the state has her left side exposed to the Atlantic breezes – 2,876 miles (4,628 kilometers) of shoreline. While speaking of water, the salamander is the official state amphibian, there is said to be a cousin of the Loch Ness Monster in Lake Murray that surfaces every few years.

South Carolina's main agricultural products include tobacco, poultry, cattle, dairy, soybeans, and hogs, and main industries include textiles, chemicals, paper, and machinery. South Carolina used to be known as the Iodine State and now houses the world's largest Ginkgo farm (for those who favor natural remedies).

Whether you like city life in places like Columbia, Charleston, North Charleston, Greenville, Rock Hill, or small-town living, South Carolina has something to offer. Columbia is home to the state's oldest dance company, and the countryside offers basket-making, apple festivals, gardens, and nature events.

The state motto is While I Breathe, I Hope. Sound like a positive introduction?

There is also an old saying that whoever drinks the water from Catfish Creek becomes infatuated with the area and wishes to remain there forever. Start your own love affair with South Carolina!
