Starting at $50 | 2.5 Hour Tour
The Sandy Island community was founded by a freed rice engineer who worked on local rice plantations. Many of these residents to include myself are his direct decedents. Because the residents live isolated from the influence of modern culture, the Gullah way of life here is preserved.

Health and Safety Policy
If you begin to feel ill at any time with fever, cough, shortness of breath, or other
symptoms of COVID-19:
Visit scdhec.gov/COVID19 for more information or call the CARELINE at 1-855-472-3432 for general questions.
How long should you quarantine
1.
Staying in quarantine for 14 days after your last exposure to a person with COVID-19 is the best way to prevent more spread. The options below can be used to shorten your quarantine period.
•
Your quarantine can end 10 days after your last exposure to the person with COVID-19, if you’ve not experienced any symptoms.
•
Alternatively, your quarantine period can end 7 days after your last exposure to the person with COVID-19, if a diagnostic test collected no sooner than day 5 of your quarantine period is negative for COVID-19 and you’ve not experienced any symptoms.
2.
If you live with someone who has COVID-19, your quarantine period begins when the sick person can separate from you (in a separate room with a separate bathroom) or when the sick person can no longer spread the virus (generally when they complete a 10-day isolation period).
3.
You may not need to quarantine if one or both of the following scenarios apply to you.
•
If you’ve tested positive for COVID-19 within the past 3 months and have recovered, you do not have to quarantine as long as you do not develop
new symptoms.
•
If it has been 2 weeks since you completed a full COVID-19 vaccine series, you do not have to quarantine as long as you do not develop new symptoms. For more information on quarantine, visit www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/quarantine.html.

6.
Monitor for symptoms and practice good hygiene.
•
Watch for fever, cough, trouble breathing, or other symptoms of COVID-19. If you end your quarantine early on day 7 or day 10, continue to monitor your symptoms until it’s been 14 days after your last exposure to the person with COVID-19.

Cover your mouth and nose with tissue or a sleeve (not hands) when coughing or sneezing.
