Johns Island lies due west of the Charleston peninsula, serving as a gateway island for its more famous neighbors, Kiawah and Seabrook. Technically an island because it is surrounded by the Intercostal Waterway, the Stono River, the Kiawah River and Bohicket Creek, Johns Island is protected from the ocean by the islands surrounding it.
A patchwork of natural waterways separated by farmland, residential property and commercial development, Johns Island has always served as the agricultural heart of the area. In fact, much of the produce that distinguishes the unique flavors of Low country Cuisine is grown on Johns Island. Spinach, sweet corn, broccoli, collards, okra, melons, pumpkins, cucumbers, strawberries, brussels sprouts, zucchini, asparagus, blueberries and a variety of different lettuces, all make their way to the stove pots in homes and restaurants across the area.
Johns Island boasts a handful of fine restaurants and a number of small shopping areas near the heart of the growing population centers. Bohicket Road, the main highway through the island, has been widened near the entrances of Kiawah and Seabrook, with that area now beginning to attract its fair share of upscale residents.
