With more than 20 championship-style golf courses, stunning beaches, family events, and hundreds of top-quality restaurants, Hilton Head is one of the most popular vacation spots in the Southeast.

Budget friendly activities are available day and night on the Island. Families can venture to the top of the Harbour Town Lighthouse in Sea Pines for only a dollar each person. This activity offers a clear view of the Island’s south end as well as the eye pleasing Harbour Town Marina. Also available in Sea Pines is shopping, waterfront dining and horse back riding.

Since the birth of its first golf course in 1961, Hilton Head Island has grown into what Golf Digest readers have named No. 10 on its list of the world’s best golf resorts.

Incorporated as a town in 1983, Hilton Head Island is now home to several environmentally planned resort and residential communities, supporting more than 30,000 full-time residents. These communities have been named “plantations,” but cotton fields have been replaced by lush green golf courses, tennis courts, shimmering lakes and beautifully designed resorts and villas.

Hilton Head is also home to some of the finest hotels in the Southeast. Many offer special packages that cater to each visitor’s wish-list. For more information on Hilton Head, visit hiltonheadisland.org..
