Sandy Island is a preserve owned and managed by The Nature Conservancy. Due to its unique soil composition, it harbors a number of important plant species as well a healthy population of the federally endangered Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis). A gullah community still lives on the island and it is the only place in South Carolina where students much take a School-Boat to get to class.
