Hilton Head Guidebook
Sightseeing
Great if you are staying a week or more. Downtown and a historic Savannah is only 50 min away ( take the route through old town Bluffton for a more scenic drive and come across the bridge on the Savannah River) Lots of shops along the Riverwalk and restaurants but the history is what has always inspired us. Lots of trolley car tours and ghost tours year-round where you can get a tour on a bicycle or a horse carriage. Walk the numerous squares of Savannah with all the Spanish moss in the trees and feel like you’re walking back in time.You could spend more than one day there for sure because of all the history but it’s nice to come home and be on the beach. We like Hilton head beach better than Tybee and that’s why we bought here. We think he will feel the same.

Neighborhoods
Live music, lots of shopping, great sunset views, take a ferry to Dafuskie Island, go deep sea fishing, rent jet skis, go parasailing or partake on a sunset cruise. There is a fabulous playground, great biking trails, several ice cream shops, great restaurants with great views. Quarterdeck is a mature vibe, where crazy crab is family friendly. There is some outside eating areas at some of the restaurants. Great sunset views regardless

A must stop when you forgot to pack something that you can walk to!
When you run out of something or forgot to pack it-chances are Beth has it in her store-including BAIT! Clothes, toys, everything you would need for the beach...it's more like a general store without food. Pooch Maverick hangs/lays out at the front door for pets and might sing you a song if you ask nicely. Tell her Terisha sent you.

I think they started selling food but it’s not the reason this place is the place to go! If you’re a beer drinker this place is a favorite! Not fancy but that’s not why you come you come for the great beer! Biking distance from the condo it’s a little too far to walk. You can always drive.

Where do you want to sit and have a picnic, throw a ball or a frisbee, sit a blanket out and take a nice read in the shade or have kids that wanna play on the playground or visit the amazing children’s museum, this is a place to go! Across from what to see and New York pizza, it’s just a block and a half off the beach put a nice place for a little different rest and relaxation.

If you always wanted to ride the beach at night this is for you! Monique is amazing she’s created this amazing business and she is fabulous! She provides the bikes and the lights! There’s no place to hold water but great places she stops for good pictures. She even gives a little history of the area. It’s about a 35 minute ride for about $41 after-tax per person. It’s a really cool thing to say you’ve done especially if you have a group. It’s like being a superstar when you ride down in Coligny. Definitely fun.
