The 12 miles of beaches on Hilton Head Island are considered its most beautiful natural resource. At low tide, the beach extends to a width of 600 feet. Tide levels change as much as eight feet about every six hours. All of Hilton Head's beautiful beaches are public, from the ocean to the high water mark. Access to the beach, however, is often private. if your accommodations do not provide direct access to the beach, you can usually find public access nearby. The Town of Hilton Head provides four public beach accesses: Alder Lane Beach Access off South Forest Beach Drive; Coligny Beach Circle; both on the South end of the island and Driessen Beach Park at the end of Bradley Beach Road; and Folly Field Beach Park off Folly Field Road, both mid-island.
In addition to walking, swimming or biking the beaches, there are many other water activities available. Check into the boat cruises or sailing charters. Watch Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin at play while you learn about the environment on an EcoTour. Try a kayak lesson and tour or get into some action water sports via a powerboat. You can also spend the day aboard a fishing or shrimping charter. If you love the water, you'll love Hilton Head!
