Island Spots Worth Your Time
From the iconic lighthouse to quiet nature trails, here's where to spend your time on Hilton Head — beaches, marinas, parks, and a little history too.
Harbour Town Lighthouse
Hilton Head's iconic red-and-white landmark! Climb to the top for stunning views of Calibogue Sound, explore local history exhibits, and enjoy the marina, shops, and dining in Harbour Town.
Shelter Cove Harbour
& Marina
This vibrant waterfront spot features scenic marina views, local dining, and boutique shopping. Stroll along the harbor, book a dolphin tour or fishing charter, and check out seasonal fireworks and family events!
Coligny Beach Park
Hilton Head’s premier beach destination features wide sandy shores, beach access mats, swings, outdoor showers, and restrooms. Step off the sand to explore nearby shops and dining, or stay all day to swim, relax, and take in a stunning sunset.
Lowcountry
Celebration Park
This family favorite features an expansive playground, interactive play areas, open green spaces, and walking paths. It's a great spot for a picnic or catching community concerts and seasonal events!
Sea Pines Forest Reserve
Tucked away in the heart of the island, this natural haven boasts a charm that transcends the island’s beachy reputation. Since 1970, this must-see amenity has been drawing visitors from all corners of the world. A nature walk at Forest Preserve deserves a spot on every Hilton Head itinerary.
Fish Haul Creek Beach
Fish Haul Creek Beach is another untouched beauty on Hilton Head. To get to this hidden gem, you’ll have to take a short trek through the woods (well, as woody as it gets on the island). The path that leads out from the parking lot takes guests to the beach, but not without a few stops on the way!
