About this location

Hunting Island State State Park offers filmmakers a pristine barrier island canvas featuring dramatic Atlantic coastline, windswept maritime forest, and the iconic 1859 lighthouse that has become a cinematic staple for period and contemporary productions alike. The natural erosion patterns and unspoiled beaches provide authentic coastal authenticity, while the varied topography delivers visual contrast from dense maritime scrub to open sandy shores. Located in Beaufort County, South Carolina, this public outdoor location requires permits but rewards productions with stunning, undeveloped vistas perfect for everything from indie features to large-scale commercial shoots.
