Dataw Island is the only community in the South Carolina Low Country to have two 18-hole golf courses AND a full service marina. Dataw combines upscale waterfront and country-club living with convenience to the true village atmosphere found in the neighboring historic town of Beaufort.

Over 870 acres surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway and tidal marshes bustling with wildlife, make up Dataw Island. Home to Tom Fazio’s Cotton Dike course and Arthur Hills’ Morgan River course, Dataw Island’s golf scene offers opportunities for social play including men's and ladies groups, club tournaments, inter-club tournaments as well as instruction from top golf professionals. The challenging shots and the dramatic backdrop of the marsh and rivers make playing the Dataw golf courses an exhilarating golf experience.

Dataw’s fully operational marina offers both wet-slips and dry storage and is located just 3 miles form the Intracoastal Waterway. Both the Intracoastal and the Atlantic Ocean beyond provide excellent fishing grounds and endless opportunities for sailing trips. Dataw’s ship’s store has everything you will need for a day on the water including fuel. A waterfront restaurant will soon be added as another great dining option on Dataw.

In addition to golfing and boating, Dataw offers over thirty member-sponsored clubs focusing on special interests including everything from outdoor activities to book clubs. Special events and dining whether casual or gourmet can be found in the beautifully appointed clubhouse. Equipped with the latest exercising and training machines as well as an indoor lap pool, the fitness facility also hosts Yoga and Pilates classes. The Tennis center features 8 Har-Tru courts, a staff of professionals, and USTA play; thereby providing additional options for an active lifestyle. Looking for some down-time? – Spend a day relaxing by the marsh front pool and let the snack-bar take care of lunch.

When you are ready for a day away from the plantation, take a short jaunt to the river font town of Beaufort. Soak in tradition and small town feel of this quaint village while walking from shop to shop. Stop to eat at one of the many dining establishments that dot the streets.

Dataw Island provides its residents with the security and protection of a gated community and access to a town steeped in Low Country flavor. For those who want to have it all; life on the water and life on the course, and so much more - be sure to consider Dataw Island.
