Boating Activities & Information ~ Hilton Head Marina

Hilton Head Island is the premier destination for fishing and boating in South Carolina. Ideally placed between the Intracoastal Waterway and the vast Atlantic Ocean, Hilton Head offers great waterways for a variety of water sports. The Intracoastal Waterway is an enormous grouping of passages and channels that stretch from Key West, Florida to Norfolk, Virginia. Due to the mild local climate and the fact that the waters within these channels are warmed by the Gulf Stream, boaters can enjoy access to exciting excursions no matter what time of year you visit. Check current Hilton Head weather here.
Local outfitters pride themselves on providing options from dolphin-watching cruises to deep sea fishing that will please anyone in your group. For those with an independent streak, canoes, kayaks, etc. can be rented so you can explore the peaceful creeks and inlets of the island. Zip through the water on personal jet skis or flying in the air from a parasail. Professional instruction is also available for all of these activities. Be sure and check out the overnight trips for an experience you’ll never forget.
For those of you looking for a place to dock, Hilton Head has a number of marinas that welcome visitors. Many of them provide fuel, supplies, storage, telephones, cable T.V. hook ups, laundry facilities, fitness equipment, telephones, fresh water, and showers.
If you plan on bringing a boat, jet skis, etc. arrangements with a marina or boat storage must me made ahead of time. Gated plantations and other complexes will not allow boat or jet ski parking on the property.
All of the local marinas have boating and fishing charters to satisfy everything from a romantic sunset dinner cruise to a deep sea fishing excursion. Call the following numbers or visit their websites for more information.
