Hilton Head Island Info
INTRODUCTION Hilton Head Island is located on the Atlantic Coast at the southeastern end of Beaufort County, South Carolina. As part of an area referred to as the Lowcountry (the low-lying area or the coastal plains of Georgia and South Carolina), Hilton Head Island is 45 miles north of Savannah, GA and about 100 miles south of Charleston, SC. Hilton Head Island is also part of the Sea Islands area, which consists of 64 larger islands and more than 2000 smaller ones, along with a portion of the mainland. At 12 miles long and five miles wide, Hilton Head is the second largest (after Long Island, NY) of the Atlantic Barrier Islands. It gained prominence during the 1950’s when the first bridge was constructed to connect the island with the mainland. Along with Bluffton and Beaufort, it is part of the Treasured Coast of South Carolina. |
