Imagine a gated 200-acre island with fewer than 40 homesites averaging five acres in size and positioned on the waterfront, marsh front and interior of the property. This quiet, secluded retreat is located just outside Beaufort, but seems a world apart, with its once oyster shell roads and air of privacy. This is not an area for those craving bright lights, this is a community for those who value their privacy while having the conveniences and entertainment of Beaufort, just minutes away. The families who choose Polawana Island do so deliberately, with an appreciation for nature and a desire to help protect this beautiful haven. A community deep water dock &, boat launch and park offer carefree ways to enjoy the water or watch wildlife at play.
