2. Angel Oak

JOHNS ISLAND.   Huge, gnarled, and spectacular, this live oak is believed to be more than 1400 years old. The incredible specimen stretches up 65 feet, is 25 feet in circumference, boasts limbs that reach out 89 feet, and shades more than 17,000 square feet of terrain. Named for the family who once owned the property on which it sits, the oak now occupies parkland cared for by the city of Charleston. Its longevity is due in no small part to the respect that locals have maintained for such an astounding natural phenomenon.   (© 10Best)

This tree is worth the drive to see All I can say is WOW. It was definitely a magnificent tree. I have to go back and see it again. We went to Charleston and Savannah but I have to say this the highlight of the trip. The photos don't do it justice.
