Carillion Bell Tower

Located down Carillon Avenue from the entrance, our small-town ‘main street,’ is a cherished landmark to residents and a surprise and delight to newcomers. Surrounded by live oaks and sandy paths, the Carillon Bell Tower, extends almost fifty feet in height, and  is the centerpiece of Carillon Circle and the namesake for our community. Carillon – the French word for ‘chime’ – creates the feeling of a charming coastal village.  From 8 a.m. until 8 p.m. bells count out the time each hour, then … listeners are treated to a harmonious tune played by 35 carillon bells … simply charming!  The bell tower is just one small slice of heaven for our vacationers and permanent residents alike!
