== Fun facts ==
* Politically, Colleton County is usually swing, however, it has been leaning Republican in recent times.
* In March 1975, the town of Edisto Beach was annexed to Colleton County from Charleston County, thus bringing the county to its present size.
* Within Edisto Beach is Edisto Beach State Park. The park offers South Carolina's longest system of handicapped accessible hiking and biking trails. The trails wind through Edisto Island's maritime forest, leading to sites such as a Native American shell midden dated to 2000 BC, and a survey monument placed by Alexander Bache in 1850.
** Activities possible at the park include surf fishing for flounder, spot tail and whiting, as well as boating, birding and picnicking.
* Due to its status as a bedroom community, Edisto Beach is among the most affluent communities in the state.
* Colleton is the fifth-largest county in South Carolina by land area and fourth-largest by total area.
