North Daniel Island begins just south of I-526 and extends northeast to the edge of the Francis Marion National Forest. While slightly less populated than Daniel Island proper, North Daniel Island residents enjoy fast access to the popular shopping and dining district along Seven Farms Drive. Downtown Charleston is only about 14 miles southwest of North Daniel Island, a commute of less than 20 minutes. Those working at Joint Base Charleston and the Charleston Naval Complex find that being directly across Cooper River convenient, frequent flyers will enjoy being minutes from Charleston International Airport, and shoppers will appreciate the nearby Tanger Outlets Charleston.

For those who enjoy history, the Charles Towne Landing State Historic Site, Historic Charleston City Market, and Boone Hall Plantation and Gardens are all minutes away from North Daniel Island. The island itself covers 4,000 acres and features eight parks and two sports facilities -- the Family Circle Tennis Center and MUSC Health Stadium. The private Daniel Island Club is ideal for golfers with courses designed by Rees Jones and Tom Fazio.
