Daniel Island, South Carolina

Living on Daniel Island

Daniel Island is a highly desirable place to live, nestled amidst the tranquil waters of the Cooper River, Beresford Creek, Ralston Creek, and the Wando River.

The island offers a charming small-town atmosphere and an array of amenities such as shopping, acres of parks, miles of walking trails, community docks, and golf courses. It is also a convenient location to live, with just a fifteen-minute commute to historic downtown Charleston and the Charleston airport. Homeowners have the opportunity to join the prestigious Daniel Island Club, which provides challenging golf courses, year-round social events, tennis, and fitness facilities. They can also enjoy a concert or catch a tennis match at Credit One Stadium on the island.

The picturesque waterfront views and homesites with deep-water access to the Atlantic Ocean have inspired the development of some of the island's most recent communities, such as Captains Island and The Retreat, which feature Lowcountry architectural design.
