Hilton Head Island is a barrier island on South Carolina’s southern coast that was largely rural until the 1950s, when the first planned resort communities, led by Sea Pines, were developed with an emphasis on preserving the natural landscape. Today it is one of the East Coast’s best-known golf and beach destinations, with miles of hard-packed sand beaches, more than two dozen golf courses, extensive bike paths and a strong Gullah heritage. Tourism, golf, real estate and second homes drive the economy, and many residents are retirees and seasonal homeowners.
Hilton Head’s own airport sits on the island, just minutes from the beaches and the gates of Sea Pines, Palmetto Dunes and Port Royal, while Savannah/Hilton Head International is about 45 minutes away by car, longer when traffic stacks up on the bridges. Flying private into Hilton Head Airport skips that drive entirely, so a golf trip or a family beach week starts as soon as you land. Visitors spend their days on the beach and the courses, biking the island’s pathways, kayaking the marshes and taking boats to Daufuskie Island.
