Wildlife Viewing

Litchfield By The Sea is a coastal sanctuary where preserved marshlands, tranquil lakes, and oceanfront dunes create a thriving haven for South Carolina’s native wildlife. Owners and guests enjoy a front-row seat to nature, with frequent sightings of majestic herons, egrets, and osprey soaring above, while turtles, deer, and fish animate the lush landscape below.

As you explore this protected environment, you may also encounter the American Alligator, a fascinating and vital part of our local ecosystem. To ensure a safe and respectful experience for both visitors and wildlife, please observe these magnificent creatures from a distance. In accordance with South Carolina law and SCDNR guidelines, it is strictly prohibited to feed, entice, or harm alligators.

Should you notice an alligator in an unsafe location, please contact property security rather than attempting to handle the situation yourself.
