Audubon Newhall Preserve - Hilton Head Island, SC - Public Access Lands on Waymarking.com

Audubon Newhall Preserve is a large nature owned by the local chapter of the Audubon Society. It was originally owned by Caroline Newhall as a place to protect rare plants from development, and it has since become a fairly popular area for hiking and birdwatching.

The preserve contains two pollinator gardens and several small wetlands, with a short boardwalk running through one of them. The center of the preserve is a moderately-sized pond with a wooden overlook. Informational signs discuss many of the plants surrounding the pond.
