The Alligator Oak - Across from 424 Main Street, Conway, SC

Stop 5: The Alligator Oak stands in the First United Methodist Church graveyard across the street from the Mary Beaty Oak. Walk around until you see the iconic downward-facing alligator face. The large knot is the eye, and the snout is going down towards the ground.

Qwaygo Insider Tips: The tree's circumference is nearly 19 feet, and it is around 500 years old (Circa 1537).
