We suggest that as the ideal conclusion to 2021, you consider celebrating your family by enjoying a memorable holiday trip to Hilton Head Island. Or — if you’re a Lowcountry local, or in the midst of an extended visit to the resort — we encourage you to take advantage of Palmetto Dunes’ numerous holiday offerings.
Around the resort, bike, charters and, of course, golf have all been extremely popular this year. There is nothing better than getting outside and enjoying all that Palmetto Dunes and Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina have to offer! Visitors and guests looking for memorable outdoor activities may bike along the beach or our five miles of paved pathways, kayak the 11-mile inland lagoon system or explore Shelter Cove for a variety of dining, shops, entertainment, fishing charters, nature tours, water sports and much more.
