Beaufort is the county seat of Beaufort County, where South Carolina's first European settlements were located. In French "beau" means beautiful, handsome, lovely, or fine ... and after even the shortest visit, you'll know that both the city and the county of Beaufort are aptly named. (Ironically, both are actually named for an Englishman, Henry Somerset, the Second Duke of Beaufort, who pronounced his name "BOH-fert," as in bow and arrow and Beaufort, North Carolina.)
