The settlement at Port Royal, originally located on the southern coast of what is now South Carolina, was moved to a new location after it was destroyed by a hurricane in 1710. The new settlement was established further inland, near the present-day town of Beaufort. This relocation aimed to provide better protection from natural disasters and improve trade opportunities.
