Johns Island is the largest island in the state and fourth largest on the East Coast, best known as home to the world-famous Angel Oak tree, called the most beautiful place in South Carolina by Condé Nast Traveler. It’s now also where you’ll find the best beer in South Carolina – at a spot called Low Tide Brewing.
