How Crowded Is Charles Pinckney National Historic Site in November?

November runs about 0.7× Charles Pinckney National Historic Site's average month, which makes it a quiet month here — roughly 6% of the park's yearly visitors come in November.

In a typical November the park sees roughly 2,200 recreation visits, based on National Park Service monthly counts from 1995 to 2025.

That makes November the 11th-busiest of the park's twelve months, sitting between the April peak (1.4×) and the January low (0.6×).

On our Best Time to Visit score November rates 69/100 ("Good"), versus the top-rated January at 80/100 — the best overall balance of crowds and daylight.

Because June, July and August together draw about 27% of annual visitors, choosing November instead steps outside that summer crush — the single biggest lever on how crowded the park feels.

You'll have about 10.3 hours of daylight in November to explore — between the 9.8-hour midwinter low and the 14.2-hour summer high.

Park-wide, 2024 drew 30,903 recreation visits, down 3.8% from 32,109 in 2023.

Across the past decade overall visitation has eased about 43.8%, so November may feel a touch quieter than it once did.
