Thomas Park – American Revolution Battle Site at Breach Inlet

Thomson Park is a new public park on Sullivan’s Island overlooking Breach Inlet. Permanent exhibits commemorate the patriot defense against a British attack from Long Island (Isle of Palms) in June 1776. This forgotten fight was a key to the momentous American victory in the Battle of Sullivan’s Island.
