Hilton Head Island, South Carolina

Hilton Head Island is located just off the southern tip of South Carolina.  It's a family friendly destination offering a plethora of outdoor activities including bike trails, golfing, tennis, boating, fishing, kayaking and more.  Its white sandy beaches attract visitors annually who want to relax and soak up the sun.  The Harbour Town Lighthouse is a great attraction that offers visitors a great view of the island from 90-feet above.  A welcome contrast Hilton Head offers is the absence of billboards, bright or flashy signs affixed to buildings and all of which are set back from the road, allowing the island's natural beauty to shine through and not overshadow its natural environment.  I have visited Hilton Head a couple of times and have always enjoyed my time there.  I especially enjoyed the bike trails that wrap around the island providing a scenic tour of the beautiful island.  I urge everyone to visit this beautiful destination.  Hilton Head's Chamber of Commerce says: " Hilton Head Island may only be 12 miles by 5 miles wide, but you'll find everything you need for a perfect Island retreat.  There's something marvelously different about the relaxed, warm island attitude found at Hilton Head Island."
