Spring

in the Lowcountry

Spring is advancing, and winter will soon be but a mere memory. I am looking forward to getting out on the golf course, though winter in the Lowcountry isn’t always too rough for golf. Spring is just a more pleasant time to go. The Beaufort area’s climate is, more often than not, warm and inviting with the exception of a few cold days during the winter months. The welcoming warm weather of spring also brings many of the Lowcountry’s blooming flowers. Azaleas, honey-suckles and other flowers burst into a rainbow of color in the spring. Spring also brings back the opportunity to fish for Cobia for all you weekend fisherman. These fish have a maximum length of 78 inches and a maximum weight of 150 pounds and they are delicious. During the rest of the year, Cobia is usually found in the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean. In the spring, however (when the river water warms to around seventy degrees) the Cobia make their way to Port Royal Sound and the Broad River. The best signs of spring come from the birds. From Autumn’s October until Spring’s April is the best time to go bird watching. The Lowcountry hosts at least nine wildlife refuges and several state-owned sanctuaries, which are the best places to go when one wishes to bird watch in the Lowcountry. You can tell that spring is almost here when you wake up one morning to the sound of birds chirping everywhere during their migration back north. You may want to spy on Blue Herons, Pelicans, Storks and the endangered Bald Eagles. Enjoy the beautiful weather and the stunning sights and sounds of Beautiful Beaufort at this very special time of year.
