Ravenel, South Carolina


Ravenel is located south of Charleston on US 17. Once a place where rice plantations were carved out of cypress swamps, the Caw Caw Nature and History Interpretive Center now allows visitors to learn about the Gullah culture and the natural history of this area.

Birding and nature tours on foot or kayak … displays about rice, indigo, and tea … and presentations and storytellers are all part of the educational experience at Caw Caw.
