Johns Island, the largest island in the state of South Carolina, is a barrier island with a rich history and diverse ecosystem. Bordered by Wadmalaw, Seabrook, Kiawah, Edisto, Folly, and James islands, it is separated from its neighbors by the Stono and Kiawah rivers, which are part of the Intracoastal Waterway system.

Additionally, the American Revolutionary War and the Civil War both left their mark on the island, with battles and occupations occurring during these periods.
