Paradise found
Wednesday May 10, 2023 We’re still at Hunting Island State Park on the southern coast of South Carolina. I hesitate to post our location; this is one of the last unspoiled beaches available to the common man….or woman…….or theythemitwtf? Paradise Hunting Island has a campground, a day use beach, several forest hiking trails and a historic lighthouse. There is no beach town type area, no T-Shirt/Beach towel shops, no arcades or anything like that. Maybe that’s why it is not overrun with people. In the surrounding area, you will find a few scattered restaurants. At least half of them are small grills catering to the locals more than tourists. A lot of the scenes from the Forest Gump movie where filmed around here. The Vietnam War scenes were filmed right here in the state park. Tom Hanks from the movie Forest Gump Yesterday we took a break from our beach activities and drove back across the low country islands to Beaufort. I had mapped the locations of all the thrift stores in the area
