Welcome

to Hilton Head Island

What makes a vacation special? What makes it a place that becomes an annual vacation for so many of our visitors?

There’s something about coming together with family and friends on this island of almost indescribable beauty that brings people back again and again.

It’s a place where families leave behind the daily routine to relax, explore and reconnect with nature. It’s a place where you might just catch a glimpse of a baby sea turtle making its way to the ocean and see dolphins gliding gracefully through the water from your kayak.

You’ll feel yourself begin to relax as you cross the bridge onto the island. The world seems to slow down a bit as you walk along the beach and meander by bike under centuries-old oak trees.

We’re proud and protective of the environment in which we live and encourage our island guests to leave nothing but their footprints on the sand. Hilton Head Island is home to some of the most pristine beaches in the country, and respect for the environment is a value shared by those who live here and those who visit.

Want to know the hidden gems of the island? Locals are proud to share their secret spots to catch the best sunset and tell you where to find their favorite shrimp and oysters. We take our seafood seriously, and enjoying fresh seafood caught in local waters is a special part of island life.

History comes alive on the island as you explore our Gullah culture at the Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park. Immerse yourself in our community and get to know the rich culture and heritage that makes the island so unique. Hilton Head Island is an extraordinary place, but you don’t have to take our word for it. We’ve been chosen as the #1 Island in the U.S. by the readers of both Condé Nast Traveler and Travel + Leisure magazine year after year. We’re consistently named among the best beaches in the country and lauded for our commitment to environmental preservation and sustainability. Start planning your getaway at HiltonHeadIsland.org, where you’ll discover the perfect vacation spot with something for everyone to explore and enjoy. We know your first visit won’t be your last.
