Hilton Head Island is the premier destination for
fishing and boating in S.C. Ideally placed between the
Intercostals Waterway and the vast Atlantic Ocean, the
island offers numerous opportunities for a variety of
water sports. The Intercostals Waterway is an enormous
grouping of passages and channels that stretch from the
coast of Florida to the choppy shores of the New England
states. 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.
And you won’t be disappointed by the variety of
adventures available to you. Our local outfitters pride
themselves on providing options that will please anyone
in your group. Imagine standing on the deck of a charter
as the sea spray thickens the air, clutching the rail as
you scan the Atlantic for protruding fins on a
dolphin-watching cruise. Or picture yourself skimming
across the surface of the ocean in a sleek sailboat,
relishing the quiet speed and graceful turns at the hand
of Mother Nature. For those of you with an independent
streak, exploring the creeks and inlets of the island in
a canoe or kayak will be the highlight of your vacation.
Instruction is available for all of these activities; or
you more experienced folks can rent the equipment and
strike out on your own. 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.

more information. With a little research, you’ll find
the options that are perfect for you.
